Turning Forty-One, yep 41

I told Jason that after you turn 40 you count your years differently. For every 10 years you add one to 40. Which means I am 41. The next day he says to me, Kiera and Aunt Ruth say you are really 50. Is that true Mom? I said it just depends on how you count it and what your units of measure are. Anyway, I think I am doing pretty dang good for 50. I have whats most important to me right now, a wonderful family, spiritual grounding, good friends, a very blessed life, with health and abundance, my son Jason who is a huge light for me, and plenty of learning, growing and helping in front of me.

I had the day off, and we packed it with fun. The best way to start off anyday is hoot-en-nannies. We love our hoots, and now that we are getting 3 eggs a day from our chickens we can have them every day if we want.


Then Jason and I went miniature golfing. I love hanging out with Jason and just laughing and playing. We played a few arcade games after golfing and he got this plastic frog that you can make jump and we spent 20 minutes just sitting there making the frog jump at each other. That was fun 6 year old time.




Then we got some more fun kids and went swimming. It is still in the 90s here and very nice to swim.






We had a fun party at Ruth's. It was fun to have good friends around and talk and laugh and catch up. It was a little bigger than I had thought, Ruth took some say in who was there, but the food was great and I think everyone had a great time.



The Gibsons brought their chair for me to sit in.






We were going to watch a movie in the backyard and we ended up just talking instead. The kids did watch a movie.




And my favorite gift was a necklace from Jason that has a heart on it, and says Mom, In my heart I remember every hug you have given me.



Ruth always throws the best party, thanks Ruth and Rod for the festivities, it was great fun. Thanks for making it special. Its great to have the best sister right around the corner everyday.
