When I see the laugh lines on my face.
When I get up at 3 AND 5 AM to go pee.
When my hips and knees pop when I get out of bed in the mornings.
When kids are just playing, having a great time, and the noise irritates me.
When I have that weird thought about opening a retirement savings account.
When I think about my 10 year old starting high school and learning to drive in just a few short years.
When I think about needing to save money for my daughters’ cars, colleges and weddings.
When I realize how long it’s been since I graduated from high school.
When I say that I prefer to stay home, comfy in my jammies with a good book rather than getting “dressed” and going to a party.
When I think about my 10 year old getting close to starting her cycle and getting her first kiss.
When I remember that if I hadn’t lost my first pregnancy, I would be mother to a high-schooler already.
OH DEAR GOD, I feel old now. Thanks. :P
