My dear sweet husband, Joel, turned 40 today! He has officially climbed the 'hill' and has one foot poised on the slippery slope.
A friend of mine told me, as I turned 40, to "Come on in! The water's fine!" What she didn't tell me was how life has a way of changing after 40. (I won't spoil it for those of you who haven't reached it yet....)
Of course, others swear that 50 is the new 40; apparently 'the hill' has moved--or so they'd like us to believe. Whatever the case, I am happy that my husband has joined me in the decade of the forties now, and we can slide happily down the slippery slope toward 50 together!
I hope you know how much you are loved....
(Oh yeah, and Happy Cinco de Mayo everyone!) ;-)
