this week on tuesday i turn 26 weeks and on thursday i turn 26 years. the first landmark is much more impressive to me than the second. i keep forgetting that my birthday is coming up and that i should think about what i want to do for it. it just seems irrelevant at the moment, with so many other important things going on in our lives.

apologies to anyone older than me, but 26 is sounding very old. entering the 2nd half of my 20’s. when i look back at the first half of my 20’s i feel very happy. it has all been about setting up my life with carl as independent people in the world and i feel proud that we have come a long way in a relatively short amount of time. the rest of my 20’s looks like it will be dedicated to setting up and nurturing our growing family and i wouldn’t have it any other way.

so really, this isn’t a birthday to be afraid of. i don’t want to roll back the years to younger days. this is exactly where i want to be. so hoorah for that.
