Birthday.
June 1, 2008
Today, I turned 38.
38 works for bra sizes and Bingo…but, it sort of falls into that black hole of birthdays. Older than 35, but not quite 40 yet.
So, how does one celebrate the big 3-8?
Today, I slept in a bit later than usual. I snuggled a few extra moments with my son. The perfect gift for me.
My husband surprised me with a gorgeous pair of earrings that I immediately donned. They looked great with my pajamas and messy hair.
Instead of making breakfast (something I never do anyway), we headed for IHOP. Buttermilk pancakes and old fashioned maple syrup make for the perfect birthday cake.
I napped this afternoon, then watched a cheesy romantic comedy. And now, my husband is getting ready to make me dinner.
No fruity cocktails, no little black dress and dancing all night, no “I just turned 25″ extravaganza.
Instead, sippy cups and sweat pants, and a peaceful, restful day with my family.
Ah, the bliss of turning 38. This is going to be a great year.
