I am now 33!

Well I'd love to say something like "wow, I can't believe I'm 33 years old" but really, an age is just an age. Admittedly, I spent my birthday feeling very anxious, but not because of my age. As you see, the night before we had Jordan, Madi, Lexi, Holly, Tim and Tyler at our house. That night as I was getting ready for bed, I saw an update from Holly saying that Chantelle had the flu on her birthday (the 21st) and how she now had it. Now I know that the kids go to school and interact with all sorts of sickness that they bring home, but something about that put me in to anxious mode. I spent most of my birthday in my room feeling anxiety and trying to relax. Alan had made plans for some people to come over to play games and kept asking me if I wanted to cancel. I didn't, I wanted to enjoy that time, but anxiety makes it hard some times. I am grateful for Alan for always being there for me and trying to make my day a good one. I came out to balloons and fun cards from the kids. Alan had gotten me a tea pot and I love it, I love him for knowing what I'd love. As the day ended, I got myself up and got ready for family to come over and I'm glad they did. We had fun playing a game. I am truly grateful for those who take the time to join me on my birthday, as it's such a busy time of year.
