My 40th Birthday Extravaganza!



Well, it's hard to believe that on October 3, I was 40 years old. In some ways, I feel like I am still a kid myself, and in other ways, I wonder where all the years have gone. I was really feeling a bit depressed over 40 before it happened.
My birthday, however, was wonderful! My friends, students, and family all came through to make it the most wonderful celebration I have ever had. The hoopla lasted for days and I received so many wonderful gifts and cards! I thought often about how lucky I am to have so many people in my life who care about me.
In many ways, my life is just beginning as we await Jade, and I am blessed by all that has come before and all that will come after the 40th year mark!
