This is 47!

Today I hit that milestone when I may have to change boxes.  You know the one on the survey when you have to identify your age bracket?  I am officially one year closer to 50 which has never seemed to bother me before but for some reason 47 just sounded a lot older!  I love to reflect a little each year on my birthday so here goes…this is 47!

So much of my life I spent measuring myself against others.  At 47 it is easy to see my sunny days are my own.  The storms I’ve experienced in life have not been the same either.

I’d be lying if I said there were not things in my past that I would like to throw a coat over.  If I could go back with the knowledge I have now I know I would make better decisions but I’m not sure I would want to.  All of those mistakes and successes along the way have made me stronger and more able to weather future storms.

Plus, you know what usually comes from the glorious rainstorms? Growth! I hope to keep growing and blooming into the person I strive to be.  No regrets.

Whether it be a raging storm or a long bout of sunny days, I hope I always stop to reflect.  Where have I been, what have I learned and how can I use it to become a better wife, mom, daughter, friend, servant.

So many things I still want to accomplish in this lifetime!
