It's very early and I am enjoying the quietness of the house on my birthday. I love birthdays, I'll happily gain a year if it means I get cards and presents, cake and champagne. What is there not to like?!
Before the girls my birthday celebration would last a good week especially if I was on holiday but now I will take whatever I can get which today is lunch with Husband at Clovis the loveliest restaurant in the village.
Maybe it's because my friends in Monaco are all older than me that I don't worry about ageing. Yes my hair is definitely turning grey but otherwise there are no changes. My skin was never great and I'll readily take wrinkles over acne. In fact as I get older I seem to take better care of myself and invest more time in pampering. And let's be honest it's not time that has cause my body to change and given me that permanent feeling of exhaustion, Amaia and Leia are entirely to blame for that! But that is a tiny price to pay for all the birthday hugs and kisses I will get today.
So, overall life is good. I am older and wiser. I have two beautiful girls and a loving husband. I am slimmer than ever and better dressed (almost out of mummy uniform!). I know what I want. I know and appreciate what is important in life. And regardless of what the numbers say and what the mirror can't hide through my rose tinted birthday glasses I am maturing nicely.
Have a good day everyone and make sure you have a celebratory drink for me! Mwah!
Ps. Happy birthday big sis!
Pps. Happy birthday Lee!
