It Was Fun While It Lasted

As I drove the boys home from preschool today, we got to chatting...

Jacob: Mom, your birthday is in two days.
Me: That's right.
Brady: We got you a present!
If I could raise one eyebrow, I would be doing it here
Me: Yeah?
Jacob: Mom, how old are you gonna be?
Me: What do you think, Jake?
Jacob: 30. Cause you were 29.
Eyebrow goes back down... darn, he's realizing I can't stay the same age. 
Me: That's right, sweetie -- the big 3-0.

Considering he's believed for the past three years that I was turning 29, I should just be happy I had a good run.

So I guess I'm turning 30 this week.

Hehe, Happy 30 Jackie!
You could always try 30 again next year. They do forget on occasion...

That's a good run. And hey, at least your kid doesn't think you're older than your husband. D is 5 years my senior, but apparently in my kid's eyes, I'm the OLD HAG. Happy, Happy Birthday Jackie! Wishing you a year of laughter, joy, pictures with your kids, and the best memories ever. Hugs
