I didn't do this post earlier because I was lazy not because I am bummed about getting older.
For me, the big 3-7 is an unremarkable birthday so I celebrated in a befitting manner. I didn't have a big party like the one I had when I turned 30. I also didn't have a mini nervous breakdown like the one I had when I turned 35. We (just hubby and me)went to a dinner theater to see OZ the Great and Powerful. It was a nice evening and low key.
I did make a couple of birthday resolutions (which is NOT the same as New Year's resolutions). Teresha, I said to myself, you need to quit worrying so much and put yourself first more often. So my birthday present to myself this year is to:
Relax More
Be Selfish on Occasion
I think I can do that!

Happy Birthday! I'm glad you had a nice day and came up with some good resolutions for yourself. You look so much like Marlie in that photo!
I love that pic of you! Glad you had a good birthday and your gifts to yourself are great - I might need to gift those to myself too ;-)
those are awesome resolutions! Stick to them please and thank you!
Happy belated honey!
Happy belated!!! What an adorable picture of you! Those are good resolutions. I recently taped a Rumi poem in my cubicle to remind me how I am loved - it reminds me that I deserve to be loved the way I have loved my babies:
I am your moon and your moonlight too.
I am your flower garden and your water too.
I have come all this way, eager for you
Without shoes or shawl
I want you to laugh
To kill all your worries
To love you
To nourish you.
I tell myself this is how I can love myself, this must be how god loves me. xo
