..and I think it is the first year I am not super excited about it! 26 just seems so much older than I feel! Sometimes I still can't believe that I am actually an ADULT who it getting MARRIED in 2 months.. I feel like I should still be crying over a boy I had a crush on in High School or some crap... Where does the time go and when I am going to start to feel like a grown up???

Hapy Birthday!!!!

I turned 30 in December So don't feel like a grown-up (even when i make life death decison on a constant basis). Welll maybe professional grown up but really not in day to day...lol i eat WAY too many micro meals...

26 is great! I did start counting backwards at 27...

I have 2 kids and I'm not completely grown up nor do I feel it. When i say my age thats when I'm like ugh, 14 more years till 40

Don't be scared of 40! Truthfully, it has been my best year yet!!!! I look better and feel better than I ever did!

Alot of people tell me that too!! I just think of the number and I freak.. Actually any number higher then 18 is freaky

II love my age though. I have 2 beautiful little girls that add so much excitement to my life that I would never change it to be 18 again! I love doing the homework thing and checking on my 2 year old everytime shes sleeping just to make sure shes still breathing I'm so OCD when it comes to that too

I totally agree with you - anything over 18 seems old! A lot of times I wake up and think to myself 'when did I get this old?'

Thanks girls!!! It is nice to know I am not alone in my thinking.. My mom will make comments about how I dress like a teenager, and I need to start looking more like an adult and it is so hard because I don't really feel like an adult.. I am not ready to trade my jeans and hoodies in for a walker just yet as my mom would like me to!
