Last weekend was my birthday where I turned 38. 38! I have no idea how I got to be this age. It only seems like yesterday that I turned 20, then 30, and now 38. Time sure flies by quickly as you get older but I’ve come to realise that age really is just a number. It doesn’t mean much more than that to me. I remember when  turned 30, I got so upset and cried.


Turning 38 hasn’t bothered me at all this year, I quite like the number 38 for some reason.

38 is the age I’ll always remember as the year I finally got married so it’ll always be a good number to me. After waiting so long, it’s going to be a celebration to remember for my family.


Even though I am 38, I don’t feel like I am and I don’t think I look like I am either. I often get asked how old I am at work and find most reactions are ones of shock as they don’t believe me. Most people I meet assume I’m in my 20’s and talk to me like I’m still a child.

38 is the age when I;m going to do more things for me. It’s the age I’ll stop sitting back and coasting through my life, watching everyone else move onwards and getting left behind. At work I’m currently training to become a Manager which is a really big step for me. It means working more hours and more responsibility but also more money and more flexibility too. 


It’s an exciting time for me at work right now, I’m finally moving on up in the world. 


2020 is going to be a good year for us here at Mummy Of 3 Diaries. 


We’re moving forward with our lives so things can only get better from here onwards.


This is ME at 38 on my 38th Birthday last weekend.

I don’t often post pictures of myself, maybe being 38 is my year of confidence to do so.
