I have read so many birthday posts and so many clever ideas come to my mind about how to write my own birthday post. But, here is the deal.
Today, March 9, 2009 I turned 46 years old (at 12:05am). For those who can do the math, I am now closer to 50 than 40. And if you know me, you know that I automatically become the next year older on my birthday....well I said 50...Yes, 50. And for those who know me might realize that this may just strike a nerve.
I have always felt older than I am. I have always said I am an old soul. But today, I am wishing I had kept my big mouth shut!
So, today, I am only 46 and for the next 364 days I will remain only 46. I will deal with 47 on March 9, 2010!
But, I am happy, healthy and grateful for all my blessings. I have TONS to be thankful for. I have just returned from a visit home, San Antonio, Texas is home. I spent time with family and that was a gift.
I am so blessed to have a mom and dad and a wonderful sister (and others) who all love me so very much. They spoiled me, fed me and made me laugh. What more could I have asked for!
So, Happy Birthday to me....the 46 year old version of me. I am going to stick with that for a while.....and as my sister reminded me I say a lot.....welcome to my world! My 46 year old, truly blessed, world.

Great tribute to yourself. You deserve it.
Happy day!
I think 46 is a great age! I'm so glad that you had a good trip and have such a loving husband and beautful healthy kids!
I have always felt older than I am too. I am sure that will catch up with me one day too!
Wish we could have gotten together, but even though things with Heather and I are not to be, I hope you and I can continue to have a friendship, and enjoy and inspire through blogs!;)
Happy 46th birhtday to you! Have a blessed year!
Happy Birthday!! I hope yo have a wonderful year, you don't look like you are even in your 40's/ I will be 37 in 2 weeks and I am having a hard time with the approaching 40 thing!!
I never would have guessed it. You look great! I will be 46 in July and you look a lot better than I do.
happy birthday! 50..46...heck...you look at least 10 years younger than that! hope you enjoyed your day!
Well, Happy Birthday to you! Sorry I missed it. 46. Yeah. Nice to be blogging with someone my age and not all those 34 year olds(he he Heather). And Kim too. The 40's are great.
You are absolutely lovely, my dear! I hope it was a wonderful day, and I hope you were spoiled rotten by your sweet family!
Can't wait to see you in a couple of weeks!
Happy Belated Birthday!!!
