Twenty-Nine:

Another year down and another year older...

Hello 29!

Thank you everyone for all of the thoughtful and wonderful birthday wishes I received throughout the day! You all truly know how to make a girl feel special!

***

It is crazy for me to think that I am already 29 years old. 

How am I already this close to 30?
Twenty Nine holds a special place in my heart. For me, it was the age I had set in my head that I wanted to be married and have children by. So here I am, writing to you as a 29 year old woman, who is a happily married stay at home mother to a beautiful little girl and who is about to welcome her son into the world in a couple of weeks. As I reflect on everything that has brought me to today, I feel incredibly grateful and thankful that my dreams are coming true!

My life of course isn't perfect, I have things I deal with and struggle with just as anyone else. But the thing is, I wouldn't change it for anything. Everything has brought me to today and the life that I live, and for me, that is perfect! 

So even though I may still feel like I am a young 22 year old girl, I am happier to be 29 and fulfilling the dreams I had set for myself.

So here is to my last year in my 20's...
I am looking forward to everything that my 29th year has to offer...

Of course starting with the most amazing birthday I had today...
It was filled with love, family, balloons, flowers, chocolate chip waffles, presents, and the perfect family dinner date at my favorite Mexican restaurant Basico, followed by the perfect Gluten Free red velvet cupcakes my amazing hubby got for me!

Thank you Steven and Charli for making this day so incredibly special.
I love you both so much!
