I don't know what possessed me to ask, but there were two teen girls standing behind me in the checkout line at Kohls. I pulled out a sandal and said "Are these cute?" the closest replied "ya, my Mom would were them." I couldn't help but say it outloud, "Boy am I old."
I don't know when it happened. I mean I am sure I knew at the time. It 's not that I want to look young anymore, I know pushin' 40 that's not likely, but I would at least like to look cute for my age. That is a clear line when you stop wanting to try to look young. Looking young sure does make an old lady look silly, but looking good and looking stylish, well I want that as much as I ever have.
If I would have had a baby at 20, that girl could have been my teen daughter. Sometimes I can't believe I have an almost three year old and an seven month old baby. I even want one more if we are so blessed before I turn 40.
Whoever said age is irrelevant is mistaken. It is in some situations I guess but overall I'm not buying that line.
