The Stay at Home Mother

So tomorrow is my birthday and it seems that the older I get - the less I want to broadcast my age. However, I always said I NEVER wanted to become one of those women who never said how old she was - so in keeping with that - tomorrow I turn the ripe old age of 36.

I think the biggest problem with turning 36 is that I am no longer in my true mid-thirties. Now, I am infact closer to 40 than ever before, and despite what everyone says about 40 being the "new 30" - it still bothers the heck out of me...

Well - the day that I knew was fast approaching, finally happened. This past Monday morning, I made the walk to my son's new elementary school to register him for kindergarten.

I thought I had given myself plenty of time (as I arrived one hour before the school opened) but I was very suprised with what I discovered when I arrived....
