A Quarter of a Century


Old.
That's what I used to think of this pretty little number.
But now that I've reached this number, I no longer think that.
25.
Twenty Five.
I am twenty-five years young today.

My insurance is going to go down.
I can rent a car without paying that pesky underage fee.
See what all I had to look forward to?!
OK, so maybe that sounded like something an old person would say.
But I'm telling ya, 25 feels fantastic.

Even though birthdays are mostly about presents and wishes and cake, I like to reflect on everything I have learned from birthday to birthday.
To reflect on how truly blessed I am for this life the Lord has given me.
I plan to make the most of every day, every week, every year.

Don't get me wrong - I still love getting presents.
And being the center of attention while people sing to me!
I mean c'mon, who doesn't?

Everyone deserves at least one day every year to celebrate their awesomeness! When do you celebrate your awesomeness?


All My Love,
Lyndsay
