One more month and I will be 28 years old. I tell you it’s been a long twenty eight years. From the days of my younger years spending summers with my aunt and uncle to those rebellious (very rebellious) teen years. I have done it all, a bit more than I ever want my children to do at the ages I did them.
I remember turning 16 years old, passing drivers ed and getting ready to drive myself to work. I tell you when I bought my first car from my aunt and uncle I felt a freedom like no other and I took well advantage of that (not in a good way).
After spending many years trying to figure out who I was and what I wanted to share in this world, I finally found my happy. Being a mother is my “happy” and helping others is my other “happy”. When I created Happily Blended I wasn’t sure if spreading happiness would really be a popular topic, I questioned if people would care to listen to my happy go lucky attitude and if they would really believe it.
I finally realized something; who cares what others think, this is ME, I truly am a positive thinker. Occasionally I can be found questioning if people wonder who I am in real life, is this happy go lucky type of attitude that has become so popular really who I am? Well I will tell you right here, right now who I am:
- A mother, wife, sister and daughter.
- Brutally honest, but not hurtful.
- Insecure at times.
- A home owner.
- A creative thinker and writer.
- A positive influence on my family.
- A best friend no matter what.
In one month on October 28th I will be 28 years old and I am happy to say I have no regrets, simply mistakes that I made and learned from. We all make mistakes it’s what we learn from them that makes us who we are today!
Make it a Happy Day!
