I might have gotten older last month. I try not to think about it because at this point aging hurts. And the last thing one wants to do is admit to the age that her face is looking. I miss the days of getting carded. Long gone are those days. Looo-ooong gone.
But let's just say I did age another year. And let's also say that to celebrate I ate three cupcakes...THREE! (But it was yellow cake with chocolate frosting. And sprinkles! My fave!) And for the further sake of a possible birthday argument, we could also say that I inhaled too many chocolate peanut clusters to count. But hey, it might have been my birthday and I'll eat what I want to...almost guilt-free. Because if you're gonna have a birthday, have it big.

P.S. Photos taken by children are better at my age. The pictures are blurry and it's harder to see the fine lines and wrinkles that are slowly starting to appear on my delicate face. Okay, fine; I may have some major creases and have for awhile. But they're still harder to see in blurry pictures. I hope.

You're funny. You are such a good writer. I like the blurry pictures my kids take of me too for the very same reason. You look beautiful!....in this blurry picture. P.S. We might be moving to Austin.....might....Troy's been interviewing for a job down there. I'll let you know if we do.
I'd say those kids have an eye for beauty--phenomenal photo, Juli! And don't you dare downplay the reality that the years have been very good to you. HAPPY late BIRTHDAY!
