Saturday (when this will actually get posted) is my birthday. I'm turning 24. Yes, I know, I'm young. However, I'm finally getting a little older! Woo! I've never really had a normal concept of age because I have some siblings that are 14 and 15 years older than me so no one ever seems "old" to me because they are probably the age of at least one or 2 of my siblings. I've been told I seem much older than I am and I've always felt that way, which is nice, but then my birthday rolls around and I'm reminded of how young I actually am. Long story short, happy birthday to me, one year older and extremely grateful for that (please skip all lectures on how someday I won't be saying that)!
I always think about my parents on my birthday and wonder what their life was like adding one more baby to the mix. I'm am the 5th of 5 girls from my mom and the 6th child of my dad's. Thanks for bringing me to the world mom and pop! I'll be awaiting a phone call from my mom telling me the story of the day I was born. She does that every year, and I love that she loves to tell me about it.

Ah - I can't believe I saw you this morning and forgot to say Happy Birthday. I stink. Hope you have a great one!
Happy birthday hon! :) Hope your day was beautiful.
Happy birthday, Emily! I'm so mad at myself! I actually have your birthday written on my calender and I completely forgot to wish you a happy b-day when I saw you at the Cooke's and then again at Ward Trunk or Treat. Please forgive me! I hope it turned out to be a great day for you and you and Brent got to celebrate in some special way!
Happy belated birthday! I completely understand what you're saying about birthdays - I really don't mind them either and I'm five years older than you are :)
Happy belated Birthday! Hope it was great!
