3 + 8 = 11

Marisa with orange

You see I told you, that picture of me holding the heart, very closely resembles me holding this orange ;)

I share this photo with you today, because I’m celebrating a birthday! Woot! And what I love about getting older, {yes, you read that right, I said 'love about getting older'} that I could not have anticipated would feel so good, is that whole thing everyone tells you, you will gain: feeling totally comfortable in your own skin. Always slightly ahead of my time and age with my thinking and world point of view...I’ve been waiting a long time to feel like I am finally catching up with me. And in the last year, I felt like I did. I caught up with me! I feel totally in sync with the flow of my life {*ahem* on most days}. There’s nothing better ~ an amazing feeling, one that actually makes me feel more connected to the spirit of this little one featured above. Honestly, I feel younger now than I did fifteen years ago. Craziness. So, as it is eluded to in the title of my post. I’m feeling closer to age 11 in terms of enthusiasm and excitement about life and that makes this a really good day and year ahead!

Ok then, I’m off to celebrate for the weekend! Before I go, a happy weekend to you! and a happy birthday to all my fellow Aquarians out there! xoxo

 

{oh and a little birthday gift for you! if you’re not on my email mailing list, you should know I’m celebrating today with my annual one day only print sale over at the shop!}
