I know it's not typical for women to admit their age; but I'm absolutely honored to be on this earth for 54 years. And I thank God and my wonderful mom every single day.
As I've mentioned before, I have two birthdays; August 29th, 2011, the day I gave breast cancer the boot, and November 18, 1962, the the day I was put on this earth. I was blessed with two very special birthday gifts, and they didn't even have to be wrapped.
I'll gladly accept every wrinkle and scar with pride, because I have a story to go with them all. And I look forward to acquiring many more in the years to come. My body is my trophy case:)
Looking at this picture of my three year old self, I can't help but wonder what must have been going through my mind, so many years ago. The only challenge I had at the time was keeping up with my three brothers, and to see this photo you would never guess I gave them a run for their money.
But 51 years later I continue to dig my heels in and take the challenges as they hit me. I was certainly blessed with a very strong will.
After all this time, I wouldn't change one thing about my life if I had the chance, and I owe the last 54 years to God and my wonderful mom!! (and of course my guardian angel/Dad in heaven)
Have a great day!!
Christine:)
