Today I'm 27.
So, happy birthday to me!
Here's a fun fact: I share this day with my nephew, Liam and my second-cousin, Ara. I'm pretty sure that by some point in the day, I will also share it with my friend Jayme's new baby boy, Coy.
It's weird to think that I am inching closer and closer to my 30's and further and further away from my 20's, but it doesn't really bother me. This birthday is actually pretty special for two reasons.
[1] It's my last birthday as a non-Mama*.
*Some may argue that being pregnant makes me a Mama already, but for arguments sake - let's just go with it.
[2] I am turning the same age that my mom was when she had me.

| Momma - Pregnant with me in 1985; Lou - Pregnant with baby boy in 2012 |
Pretty special, eh?
Mom put a sweet little diddy on Facebook about us being the same age with our first babies (amongst other wonderful things) and failed to warn me of it's tear-inducing contents.
Thanks, Mom.
I hope my 27th year will be as special as I think - full of love, laughter, new experiences (and challenges), and a deeper appreciation for the little things.
Take Luck,
LP
That's the sweetest thing ever! Happy Birthday, Lauren, mama-to-be! I'm guessing 27 will be your best year yet. <3

ReplyDeleteWe went to HS together, don't know if you remember me! :) It's such a weird feeling that we are almost 30.. I feel like I'm still in my early 20's lol.
Congrats on Baby Peters :)
