Age has never been an issue to me. I never became concerned that I was becoming another year older. I always sort of felt that if I wasn't getting another year older then I was probably dead. I would rather be older than dead! I always laughed when people turning 30 would say they are forever 29 or someone turning 40 is forever 39! I always felt that was a fun way to make light of being older!
When I met my now husband we never really discussed age. He is three years older than me and that was that! But when my husband turned 25 he really struggled and I couldn't believe being 25 bothered him! So I threw him a big surprise bash at the Crazy Cactus and we all got drunk and felt much older than 25 the next day when we had headaches! Now my husband is 31 years old and still does not love the fact that he is "that old". I always say "You're only as old as you feel" or "Age is just a number". I'm not sure any of those really help but he usually nods in agreement (probably grumbling at my positivity!)
I am now 28 years old and have not had issues with getting older! I really don't. I have many quirks and things definitely can bother me but age does not! In fact, I am excited for my 30th because I plan to be Vegas bound with my husband, my best friend (who also turns 30 the same year as me) and her husband! I look forward to my 30's! My kids will be older, we will be busier with their activities, we can hopefully travel a bit more and we will start new adventures!
To me, every year, we enter a new stage which brings on so many new exciting things! Every stage will be busy but in different ways and it will bring new excitement! I look forward to another year older...I hope my husband does too! Let's be like kids - the day after their birthday they are counting down til they get to be another year older! Its just a number right?
