Today in church Ella was sitting next to me and looking at my charm bracelet - she asked me about the "21st" birthday charm and I whispered to her that it meant 21 was a special age to be. She must have continued to think about that, because after the service was over she remarked that being 21 was very old, and she didn't know if she would ever be that age!! I told her of course she would, and that on my next birthday I was going to be an age that would really sound old to her. Her eyes got big when I told her I would turn 60 the day after Delaney turned 12! Actually, when I give it more thought, it's pretty awesome to think I will be that age in less than a month!! Equally awesome is the fact that Delaney, little Delaney, will be 12 years old!! Maybe we should have a big party this year!
