A Happy Birthday.

Posted by terri | Filed under heart, watashi

Wow, it’s been almost 2 months since I last wrote in here.  Maybe I can finally get an entry out today.

I turn 29 today, which starts the countdown to 30.  I was one of those who imagined by the time 30 came around, I would have a lot of my life figured out.  I’d be in a career that I went to college for, going home to a family of my own with a husband and kids.  I guess it was more wishful thinking than an actual plan.  And though I don’t have all those things as of right now, I am still pretty happy with how things are.

I felt like I had a glimpse into my future happiness.  Not really having plans for my birthday today, I took my hunny, my friend and her daughter out to the North Shore to have lunch and wave watch at Sunset Beach.  My friend’s daughter is so wonderfully cute and such a big girl at 3 and half years old compared to when I last saw her when she was a little over a year old.  Interaction with her then could only be so much, but now that she’s so talkative, she’s been such a delight.  And what’s been more delightful was being able to see my hunny interact with her.  They played in the sand, and he still managed to be playful and fun even when she acted a little naughty.

It’s wonderful being with someone so incredibly kind and patient with children as he is with me.  I really feel so lucky to have such a great guy, that I am glad that I didn’t settle just for the sake of having the husband and the kids by age 30.  And though there are other things to think about, I know that I have happy future ahead, even if it doesn’t come in due time.
