30

Uh ... hello? Is this thing on??
Thirty this year. Yup, the big 3.0. "Finally" would be more like it.
I've been looking forward to this birthday for a while now.
Growing up the baby of 8 kids means you spend a lot of time trying to be grown up.
I've been an adult for a while and now I've finally got the digits to show for it.
There will be a LOT of changes in the next decade for me.
-Steve graduating from law school ...
-Massive student debt to overcome ...
-The possibility of another baby ...
-The idea that I could actually become a stay-home mom ...
-The first grey hair ...
-The first noticable wrinkle ...
-Having to work to keep my figure ...
All good stuff ... well, MOSTLY good stuff. But all very exciting.

Happy Birthday!! !! I hope you had such a great day. Ok, I have a couple comments about this post:

1. I love this first picture of you and your man
2. I am so inspired by the way you are embracing this birthday - so smart
and 3. I find it really hard to believe that you will ever have to work to keep your figure.

but nice try.
