Today I was on facebook and saw that one of my friend's facebook status said he was turning 27 today. I thought to myself, "that cant be right - he was in my same grade - I didn't know he was a year older than the rest of us when we were in school together." Then it occurred to me that I will be having a birthday in a few short months and will myself be 27 yrs old. And in fact he was not older than me by a year but that I was actually aging too. When did this happen? I'm not calling 27 old by any means but it sounds big to me and it sounds old enough to be a "grown up". I'm not ready to be a grown up. Hello reality check.

Those reality checks are never fun. I'm not ready to grow up either and passing the 30 mark was a little much for me. But, truthfully, I still feel just the same inside, so I just forget that I am 31 and everything is better. :)
That's so funny! I didn't know I was older than you too! Crazy. Congrats on your new little one. She's adorable!
I had a similar reality check as I've been realizing I have a lot of friends over 30. They aren't old, they are my friends for heaven sake :) But then I realized that my view on 30 was my mental freeze at 15 and at 15 anything older than 20 is old. Goodness how our views change :)
