Four Days Till Forty
I will be 40. In 4 days. Age is an amazing thing. Where does time go? My 8 and 4 year olds make me feel young and old all at the same time. I usually feel like I'm a lost child of 12 until some adult thing brings me back to reality. Like the fact that I have two children and I'm the one driving the car. Age really is just a number. Until you overhear the 8 year olds talking about something ancient from... the 80's. As in "Man, that's so old! That's so 80's!" I hope you whipper-snappers are referring to the 1880's. Then I'm down with it.
I was considering a Chuck E. Cheese birthday party. I thought twice. I'm sure Joelle is happy I did.
Here are a few drawings for our coloring book. I'm putting it together. I get the cover. I'm 40. Should I just start saying that. Like my 4 year old randomly announces her age? I'm not as cute as my 4 year old. Hmmmm..

relax and enjoy it.
40 is the new 30.
and from the day that i turned 40 the whole world got better. and it hasn't stopped since. but there is still a lot of room for improvement. it is only UP from here on out.
i believe 40 is the decade to make a mark. and that is exactly what i am doing as i enter my 42nd year.
won't you join me?
enjoy the day!

My forties were my best years! Still young, a little smarter (not a lot), healthy, enjoy them!
Your drawings for the coloring book are beautiful!
40's are better than the 30's. Enjoy!
I'm having a hard time with the realization that I'm going to be 50 this year! So I've been dying my hair purple :) I don't want to be a part of the blue hair crowd.
Happy Birthday!!
Lucky you to be 40 again!.... I'm 15 yrs. older than you- u little brat! lol...jk.... Go ahead tell everyone, celebrate it.. You will only be 40 once... Have fun....
40 is good. 40 was my favourite birthday. In fact I liked 40 so much I had several 40th birthdays. Happy Birthday!
I like that! 40 is the new 30! Thanks for the birthday greetings! I'm in good company!
Tari: I love that you went purple! Nice!
Your just a babe in the woods Gaea! xx
The best thing about being forty for me was finally realizing that I am the boss of me. You will like it. Your coloring book pages are amazing. Loves.
Happy birthday! I'll be 40 next year. Funny how I don't feel like I'm getting older - then I look at my girls and realise that I must be. My mom celebrated her 25th birthday for very many years in a row, now I think she's 27...
i too am in my 40s... and am feeling an inner focus that i thought i had before but now realize was just a seed... to be honest, i usually forget how old i am (i have to do the math)... instead, i just 'am'... my kids are more of my gauge now...
happy birthday!
Happy Birthday to you, Gaea! I've seen your picture in magazines and things and you don't look a day over 28! You're as young as you feel and like you said age is just a number! Celebrate your number! Have a great B-Day!
