The Big 3-0

Yesterday I turned 30. When I was little 30 seemed soooo old to me. Today it doesn't, I'd rather be 30 than to be 16,17,0r 18 again. We had big plans to go to Big Juds for dinner. We were going to get the big 1 pounder hamburger (and share it of course). All day I kept telling Carter about the biggest hamburger he had ever seen. He was so excited. I was so looking forward to it, I saved all my WW points all day. And then an hour before we were going to go, Katelyn got sick. I'm going to admit I was depressed. This was not how I wanted to spend my birthday, and I really wanted that hamburger. As I sat on the couch mopping, Katelyn came out and said "when are we going to your birthday?" I told her we weren't going anymore because she was sick. She said "another time then" and walked away. I started to think of dinner when Nathan came in with flowers and said he would go pick some dinner up for us. We had the Green Chile, and it was delicious. Anyways, last night I started to think of all I have done in 30 years and it cheered me up to think of all I had accomplished in the last 30 years and what is to come in the next 30.
