Turning 35 yesterday was truly surreal for many reasons, but mostly because I still feel as though I’m a young high schooler trying to figure out my life. But then I look around and realize everything has turned out so much better than I ever dreamed. I have an amazing husband, four beautiful daughters, our forever home, and the most wonderful friends and family. Seriously, at 35 I am living my perfect life. A life that was designed just for me. 35 is not so bad it’s actually quite wonderful.

The older I get the bolder I get, the more compassionate I become, the more I fall in love with the life we have created.

Each year I continue to work on myself and have become my best self. Each year life continues to amaze me. Just when I think things can’t get any better, they exceed all expectations.

Oh how do I thank everyone for giving me a birthday I will never forget. A special thanks to my mom who truly made me feel like the most important person in the world today. Thank you to all my friends and family for taking your time to celebrate with me. Cannot wait to make many more memories together. Words cannot express how thankful I am for all of you. Love to you all.
