I'm turning 30!

Tomorrow (2/6) is my birthday, a pretty big birthday. I will be 30. Most people dread the idea of turning 30, they feel like their 20's were the best time in their life and they are officially "old" now.
I really don't feel that way. In fact I am kinda excited to see what the next 10 years bring.
I have accomplished a lot over the last 30 years. Graduated high school, college twice, started new jobs, got married, and had a baby. Becoming a mom and being blessed with the most adorable, smart, happy, little boy anyone could ask for is by far my most precious accomplishment thus far in life.
I hope one day that he knows how much happiness he brings to our life.
Tanner makes me so unbelievably happy. He is growing so fast and I want to remember this stage and all his stages forever.
My goals for the next year are to slow down a bit and really remember and appreciate the moments of him growing up. I have so much to look forward too : his first steps, first word, first birthday.
I need to really remember to be thankful for my family and friends and to try harder to make everyone I love feel special and important to me throughout the year.
