480 months

OR, 40 YEARS OLD...OY VEY...How can it be? That I am 40 years old today... I remember my Sweet Sixteen party as if it were yesterday...A DJ and pizza at my Nana's Clubhouse...All my teeny-bopper friends...The promise of what was to come... I never could have imagined it, in my wildest dreams, that I would be living the life I am today. I am blessed with a wonderful husband and four darling children who make me so happy. Even though it seems just like yesterday, sixteen was a long time ago and much has taken place in the intervening years between then and now. Let's see... I graduated from Randolph High School in 1986 and from Boston University with a degree in Psychology in 1990. I kissed alot of frogs before I found my prince in June of 1993. I found him in a way that can only be described as "meant to be"...on the JCC Coed softball league, when I got my nose broken. He was my hero (and still is!) and brought me to the Newton-Wellesley Hospital ER. Now, that was 15 years ago and I remember THAT like it was yesterday...How lucky I am that he was sent to me to be my husband?! Moral of the story: There is a silver lining to every cloud... And, turning 40 isn't so bad after all. Heck, it's getting closer to being eligible for those Senior discounts at restaurants!
