- Maybe the fact that I now have 3 children. THREE!
- That I 'carpool'.
- Because my car smells like food and spilled sippy cup (you know that smell I'm talking about).
- I am 'thirtysomething'.
- I go to bed by 9 usually....10 at the LATEST.
- I have a medicine case FULL of medicines.
- I don't flick other drivers off anymore.
- I use the phrase 'because I said so' all the time.
The list goes on and on. All of these things that have the potential of making me feel not-so-young anymore...yet I still feel pretty damn young. Way younger than my age. UNTIL! *dum dum dummmmmm* (insert spooky music here)
Jacob has a loose tooth. A loose tooth! I don't know why this makes me feel so middle-aged, but it does. People my age have babies, and carry around stylish diaper bags, and are still obsessed with the latest and greatest (which I consider myself in that category also). But to have a kid with a loose tooth? Now that's old. It just is.
Now excuse me while I go take my handful of medicine, brush and floss my teeth, apply my carmex, and fall into the bed without so much as watching the news. At 9:11 pm. I may as well be changing my own diaper! *sigh*
