A friend posted the funniest "what not" to say if you are over 30.  A couple of the sayings from the list cracked me up because I know people who say them all the time.   I won't lie i was totally making fun of those people in my head until... I came across one that I know I say all of the time.  So... apparently Cra-Cra is something I need to quit saying.  And all because I'm over 30!
Getting older was something that use to make want to cry.  I had a very serious rule in our house that mommy was always 24 yrs old.  That was until my oldest had to draw a picture in the 1st grade of her family and label each member and their age.  Well it didn't sit too well with me that it would have made me a teen mom with a 30 year old man.  Her teacher thought it was quite funny… My pastor husband… not so much…
Plus once you get to the point where you realize you complain a lot about all the pain in your hands, shoulders, knees, and back… you just aren't pulling "24" off.
This year I will turn 34… I actually had to count on my fingers because I've always just defaulted to 24.  Me turning 34… that is Cra Cra!!!  Sorry… It had to be said!

Today I decided was the day for something new… I'm not only headed towards the new year but to a new job which will lead to a new lifestyle.  So I've decided to blog.  Instead of starting on January 1st why not on December 29th.  I'm sure I will always have material because my kids are hysterical and always doing something crazy.
For instance… Yesterday I'm sitting on my bed straightening my hair while reading a book.  I just happened to be eating a little bowl of chex mix.  In my house there is a rule that we do not eat in the bedrooms.  Blake, my four year old, walks through my room on her way to the bathroom… stops, looks over and raises her eyebrows giving me a very pointed look and says "momma… Jesus and Santa can see you…"
I have a feeling my eternity or christmas loot may be in jeopardy??
