One Day Closer To Thirty.

I am not really sure that I want to mention today's significance, but all the same I guess I have. I have not ever really feared my birthday. This year is different. We had a wonderful time at Bumbershoot, surrounded by cute and quirky young twenty-somethings. Now, I realize that I like being in my twenties. I am not sure that I am ready for my thirties. It does not seem old at all (quite the opposite) it just feels different and that is scary. So I guess now that I am in the last year of my twenties (29) I should really enjoy it. Maybe I can try to figure out exactly what the idea of my twenties mean to me and what I am afraid to lose in my thirties. And then, I should really try to enjoy it while I can.

In other news, my mom picked out this picture from my sketchbook and picked the all colors to add. I thought she did a good job and so I decided I would share this with you. I have more to tell you about/show you from Bumbershoot. Today we gooco'd and I will have pictures from that to share also. In the meantime I am thinking of you all. I can not wait to catch up with you next week. Hugs to you! xox=vv.

Happy Birthday! 30 is a great year! I felt older and wiser and knew myself better than ever before! I also had a new baby and therefore a whole new job to learn! Enjoy it to the max!!!!!
