I believe age is just a number, that it's all in how you feel, but as I enter the last year of my twenties, I can't help but realize this isn't where I imagined I'd be. I vow to use this next year to take chances, try the things I've hesitated to before and ultimately accept the life I've achieved as I hit the big 3-0, knowing I haven't held back. Wanna come? Let's see what the next 365 brings...

Day 297: Happy Mother's Day!
I know I frequently give kudos to my mother for her love and support and encouragement throughout my 29 years. But on this Mother's Day, I'd like to give an extra special thank you to the woman who I try to model myself after. Mom, you've been there every step of the way, pushing me to leave behind the comfortable and venture out into the unknown to follow my dreams. And while it's been a rocky road, one that's come with just as many lows as highs, a few tears and a few more smiles, I wouldn't change it. So thank you Mom, for pushing me, for comforting me, for listening to me, for reprimanding me, for cheering me on, for everything. I've become my own woman, but a huge part of me is you and I'm proud to carry that on. I only hope I have a daughter one day to teach and raise and be there for the same way you have been for me. I love you and thank my lucky stars I got you when they were assigning mothers on July 16, 1981. :)
