And Now I'm 32

I turned 32 on Thursday. My age has never bothered me in the least...I actually enjoyed transitioning from my twenties into my thirties, and being 32 feels good. I have a beautiful life, a wonderful husband who loves me unconditionally (even on my worst days), and a daughter who thinks that I am the best mom in the world (she's sadly misinformed, but it's a charming sentiment). I have been incomprehensibly blessed, for reasons I cannot fathom. So my age, a number, seems pretty trivial. I just want to love more, worry less, be more thankful, and be present. It's been an amazing journey so far.

"She´s sadly misinformed" - mwahaha, that made me giggle! :-D

You´re in the lovliest of ages and it only gets better. I´m turning 40 this year and it actually feels fine even though I think it´s funny to pretend otherwise! :-)
