Forty

Well, yesterday I hit a new decade.

40.
40?
40!

Wow, how did that happen? So many times, I still feel like a kid.

40 YearsSource

Like just yesterday, I was in high school trying to survive.

Time moves too fast! And yet, some days seem to last forever… but that’s a post for another day.

So in honour of my new number (and inspired by Gfunkified) I’m giving you my life in numbers.

40, my current age

1996,  the year I graduated Univesity

0, the number of classes I failed in University

10.5, the number of years I’ve been married

29, the age I got married

2, the number of children I have

4, the number of times I have been pregnant

1, child delivered by c-section

1,  successful VBAC!!

0, the number of animals we have

1+,  the number of times I can be known to yell raise my voice at my girls on any given day :(

100+, the number of times I tell my girls I love them on any given day

100+, times I tickle and grab cuddles when I can from my girls.

11, countries I’ve traveled to

1, country I really want to visit

2, the maximum number of coffees I allow myself on a day, even if it is a bad day

4, things always left on my to-do list no matter how hard I try to bang off a task

7, days a week I look at my family and am thankful I am where I am.

So, what are some of your numbers?

      Thanks Amy. It was an eventful weekend. We flew back from an amazing adventure in Costa Rica. I ended up doing 3 loads of laundry on my birthday. On the bright side, it is all done!

    I love this, and I hope you were celebrated yesterday!! Which country do you still want to visit? You’re doing much better than I am, to only yell once some days! Yay for successful VBACS (I wasn’t really given that option. Sigh.)!!

      I might’ve stretched the truth on the “yelling” part, but I do *try* to keep in to a minimum.
      VBAC was awesome and I was lucky to be able to do it. Lauren was a model birth. I, however, was crazy in labour.
      I’d love to get to Ireland.
