Last Young Day

I thought I would take a moment and enjoy my last day that I feel young.

Even though I have gray hairs that I've given up pulling.

Even though I have six kids.

Even though my body tells me that I'm getting old.

Even though I'm only 34 and tomorrow is not my birthday, I will feel older.

That's because tomorrow, I will be the mother of a teenager.

I know feeling older and the gray hairs are going to accelerate from tomorrow on...

There's teenagers and then there's teenagers. Yours shouldn't give you grey hairs.

Holy cow! 13! That means only 2,191 days (including leap year) until he is missionary age! Now that's scary.

And I think you look hot with your grey streaks.
