I'm not sure how I feel about growing older... In truth, I don't really feel that old until I pass by a mirror and see my reflection, or until I try to keep up with all the 30 year olds in my palates class! Then it hits me... I really am getting old, (something I could NEVER imagine when I was young!) Time has taken away my flexibility, my endurance, my coordination,my figure, my brain and my youth, but in it's place it has given me time! Time to do the things I never was able to do when my kids were young. I have time to read, time for my friends, time to cook, time to play, time to spend with my "Young Women", time to go on dates with Steele, time to travel without having to arrange for sitters and most of all...time to spend with my grandchildren!! They are the payoff! Time spent with them is priceless! So I will gladly relinquish my youth just for the privilege of being a grandma!
