1969 was a very, very good year
Today is my birthday, and my family and I are in Disney World this week! Even though I'm an old lady now, I plan to go down water slides, eat a funnel cake, ride a roller coaster and ooh and aah at the fireworks. I will pick up my preschooler upside down and spin him around. I might laugh a little too loudly. I will tell my husband every day how much I miss our cats at home. And I might buy some silly Disney tchotchkes for the boys, just because. Heck, maybe I will go wild and buy one for myself.
I can either moan about my birthday and conceal my age as though I'm ashamed I've survived life this long.
Or, I can celebrate the life I have now and the life I've lived.
You've guessed by now....
Today, I am 40.
There, I said it.

Getting old can SUCK IT!

You are absolutely beautiful - at any age - but especially now.
Happy Birthday! WOW - you do NOT look 40 (whatever 40 looks like). You look fabulous!
Happy Birthday, you are just a tiny little YOUNG thing - - -
1953 was a very good year too - - - Watson and Crick made the first model of DNA, and I was born with lots of DNA in all my cells!!!!
:-)
Happy Birthday! You look amazing! Hope you had a wonderful day!
You're beautiful! Happy birthday, may it be the best yet!
You look AWESOME!!!!!! With two adorable little boys and a great life, 40 is a pretty good place to be!
Happy Birthday, hottie. I hope it is a great day!
ahhh that is what the pictures were all about! You are awesome.
Happy Birthday! May all your birthday wishes come true this year.
What a wonderful way to celebrate your special day!
Ah, now I get it!
You are a fabulously HOTT 40! ;-)
Have an awesome birthday!
Enjoy the Disney Birthday. Water slides and funnel cake are the way I would celebrate too. Woo-hoo. 40 is the new 20, don't sweat it. Old is 40 times 2, so you're really only halfway there. ;)
I am totally floored that you are 40! You look like you are about 25...30 tops.
Hugs and kisses to you on your birthday! xoxo
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday!!
OMG! I would have never guessed you were 40. I figured you were younger than me!
Happy Belated Birthday to you Holly!
So sorry I missed this yesterday. I hope you are having a fabulous time at Disney World. So jealous. I wish that I will be able to make it there for my birthday one year. BTW - you look amazing and remember the number means squat!
Happy belated Birthday!!! You don't look 40! Enjoy the family time in Disney.
I refuse to lie about my age as some women do- I don't get it. But you know what I REALLY like? When they card me at the liquor store!!
Happy Birthday!!! You are gorgeous...seriously! And, like my mama says, "The point isn't not to age; it's to age gracefully" Eating a funnel cake, riding a roller coaster, and enjoying life with your little ones...now that sounds like some gracefulness right there!
Happy 40th! It is a wonderful age. I forgot that you share a birthday with my son. Live it up!
Happy, happy birthday.
And, mom mom says you are only as old as you feel!
Have a great time on your trip.
Happy Birthday!! I can't think of a more appropriate way to celebrate than with all that Disney fun at your fingertips. Enjoy!
Happy Birthday. You don't look 40 at all.
Disney World is a great place to spend a birthday, by the way. I hope it's full of fun and celebrating...and I hope you wear an "It's My Birthday" Disney button. :)
