30

So I made it. 30 is apparently a milestone birthday for us women. That dreaded number which makes us feel old.
What can I say about turning 30?

I don't feel it, but then again there are days I feel like I am about 100.

I don't feel as though I've achieved much in my thirty years on this earth, but then all I have to do is look around my house and see my 5 beautiful children and know that I have done something pretty significant in my life already.

Being 30 doesn't scare me.

What scares me is that I should be confident, fit and fabulous, instead I am
self conscious
fat
and flabulous

This should be my year, my decade. I am a young woman. I am done having babies, so I can get my body back. I have a gorgeous husband.
Now is the time for me.

I want it all and I am determined to have it all.
Scrap that, I don't want it all, I want my health and fitness and to be happy and I am determined to have it.

So happy 30th birthday to me for yesterday, you go girl!
