31 years OLD today...!
I know. From my fresh-faced beauty depicted below, you would NEVER say! 10 years ago I turned 21 - so that says it ALL! I am trying to put a positive spin on being 30-something, and I can't seem to find anything.... at least its not 40-something? At least I have all my teeth? At least I can still walk on my own? =0)
31 things I am grateful for today:
- A wonderful loving husband
- 2 wonderful, naughty, beautiful, healthy children
- I have a job
- A loving family
- Friends
- SCRAPPING!!!
- A beautiful, cozy, comfortable home
- Writing
- Herbal teas
- Summer in Johannesburg
- Holidays in 3 weeks
- I am healthy
- A lovely white suit from Woolworths
- Christmas parties
- The blue top I have on today
- The internet
- colours (purple, brown, pink and turquoise are my current favourites)
- flowers in my garden
- A healthy family
- Sunshine
- 60 coloured pens
- New paper to scrap
- Brown sandals (flip flops)
- The smell of a newly painted dining room
- Norah Jones
- Bebe and Cece Winans
- A richard North Patterson book I found 2nd hand at the fleamarket
- hugs and kisses
- Late mornings
- A space to call my own (scrapping, writing, STUDYING!!)
- Woolworths!
So maybe its not so bad to turn 31 after all!
