As If Getting Older Isn’t Tough Enough!
As If Getting Older Isn’t Tough Enough!
Dear Nature,
I understand there is no stopping you from taking your course, but this… really?
I was sitting in my kitchen, minding my business when I heard A LOT of chuckling laughing. It was the sound of my two “angels” in the next room. They were on their iPads… looking at photographs they had taken… of my head.
Yes, my head. They were laughing while counting the number of gray hair they could see in the pictures they had taken of me. I didn’t realize this at first. You see, my little one came over after about 20 minutes of pure laughter and started taking pictures of my head. When I asked her why she was taking pictures of me, she answered, “because Mommy, I love how sparkly those silver hairs of yours are.” < crickets >
Well, regardless of my “beautiful sparkly silver hair” making my girls laugh, I still have not conceded to the fact that I am getting older, and that it might be time to start coloring my hair. I’m not sure if embracing this aging process is a good thing or just making me a martyr.
