I never thought that I cared much about aging...
... but when the male employee at the hipster pizza place in town asked me if I was Jana's mom on Saturday, I seriously contemplated botox. I mean, yes, Jana has a very youthful look, but she's only 2 years younger than me and he thought I was 20 years older than her! I used to say that I "liked" my eye wrinkle crows feet because it means I smile a lot, but maybe it's time for some wrinkle cream or something.

If I've learned anything it is: the public is not to be trusted and/or taken seriously. One day they're asking me for ID and if I'm in a sorority, the next day I'm getting asked if I am Breanne's mom. And one day the guy at the movie theater asked if Jana and I were twins! Come on, real life twins are not like the movie TWINS (I am at least twice her size).
OUCH! Reminds me of the time that you were at the mall in OC with Robin right after she had Hailey and people thought you and Whitney were also her kids even though she was like 26 at the time.
Or the time I was at lunch with Mom and Aunt Laurie in Nevada City and some man approached us and said "How cute! Three generations out to lunch!" Thinking about it still makes me cringe.
I am equally offended that he thought I was in middle school or something. I swear, people see more than one blonde girl and they 1. lose all ability to think rationally and 2. assume all blondes area related. Hello? Peroxide, sir?
There is no way you look like you could be her mom! When we first moved into our ward, we had a guy ask if I was Mark's daughter. Really?! Another lady in the ward has told me multiple times she thought I was 12 years old which is more offensive to me since she actually has a 12 year old and knows what one should look like. I don't care about aging that much either, but it's hard not to let some comments get under your skin.
yet another fabulous little story to add to your collection! you DO NOT look old. can't wait to see you as a beautiful, YOUNG bride next month.
The two old codgers in your office yesterday seemed to think you were in high school...if you average it all out you come out mid-twenties, just right.
Anything new in your life since this last posting??
