Almost 40...


Here's a recent LO I made about me...for a change.
Title: Almost 40...Feeling 30

Journaling:
It's hard to believe that in less than 6 months I will be forty years old --- the Big 4-0! Geez!
I don't feel that old and I'm pretty sure I don't look that old.
I can't be that old because there's still so much of the world that I want to see.
I can't be that old because there are still so many new restaurants and cuisines to try.
I can't be that old because I still want to wear dresses that end above my knee, not to mention a bikini.
I can't be that old because I have a kid who is only entering kindergarten.
I can't be that old because when I was little I thought grandmas were 40!
So I guess it is true that 40 is the new 30...except that I am older, wiser, richer, stronger and more beautiful than I was back then!

Materials: Patterned Papers, Diecut (SEI), Felt Alpha (American Crafts), Tiny Alpha Stickers (Making Memories), Floss, Buttons (craft supply), Pen (Zig);

If you look great now, I'm sure you look greater no matter what age. Its better to age gracefully than fight it. "Age doesn't matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter."
