So I turned 25 a couple of months ago, and come to find out 25 really sucks! About a month after this number entered my life I woke up and realized…I have wrinkles on my forehead (okay, just a couple of tiny lines that can be fixed with a little concealer, but they are still wrinkles!) I have found 2 grey hairs. (thank goodness I know where they are so I can pluck them now when they grow back) Also discovered that I am really out of shape and to tired to do anything about it, and can’t sleep because I have too many things on my mind so I can’t catch up either.
As much as I LOVE everything about my life I can’t help but notice other girls my age who still look like they did in high school, are partying like rockstars, and living carelessly. Not to mention the fact that they don’t have wrinkles or stretch marks or mushy bellies from birthing 2 humans out of their who ha’s. I keep telling myself that they dream of having my life with the house, the kids, the husband, and great job. Who am I kidding, they are living it up!
Anyway, on a better note, along with all the crappy things that come with being 25 also comes a huge sense of maturity and a feeling of finally being “all grown up”. I am suddenly fascinated with politics (speaking of which, I really like Obama, but I’m not sure if he is the anti-christ, so would I go to hell if the world ends and I voted for the anti-christ?), I read a million self help books and actually apply some of them to my life, I work really hard at being a good mom and wife, and I pray that I don’t do anything to permanently damage my kids!
I’m also starting to care about the environment and I am on an organic food kick! Keith thinks I am crazy, yes he actually said to me that he thought I was going a little crazy, but I don’t care because I think that I am on to something here! I don’t want to look back on my life and say that I did nothing but feed my kids crap and that I ate nothing but crap and that is why we are all dying of cancer. Maybe that is a bit extreme but I really want our family to have good eating habits because its biblical. Our bodies are temples of God and we shouldn’t put crap in them! I’ll get off my high horse now.







Wrinkles, at 25!!! How scandelous! Don’t you know that wrinkles and grey hair are the signs of wisdom? This just means I might have to start listening to you- how am I going to get out of this one….
Hi Holly,
I was on my computer tonite and decided to look up your blog!
I love it and read every word. Your guy and your girls are just precious and what a beautiful little family.
I’m lovin’ my hair – thank you for always doing such a great job to make me look lovely.
What was the name again of your favorite love story? I cannot remember and have been looking on line to search, but not luck.
See you next time!
