Grow up? Naaaaah!

It was my birthday yesterday and somehow, at the risk of sounding like a jerk, I think I'm getting more childish.. I mean aren't grown ups meant to be stressed and super busy and serious about their lives?
I was just so happy to have my family with me in the morning, and I just know that lemon and lime curd tart is a perfectly nutritious breakfast!

I am also supremely stoked that my son used the word 'awesome' in my beautiful birthday card...

It was a misty morning and a rainy afternoon, and although it made my plans change, I was so grateful for the water on this earth and the cool air it brought...and it cleared up just in time for a ukulele playin, song singing, hula hooping, pogo sticking, hand tattooing, laughter filled picnic in the park!

Such wonderful, inspiring, unique, passionate, funny and gorgeous people in my life!!! And the kids all ran as a little pack, sharing toys, digging for crabs in the sand with friends old and new. Lucky, flush with money after the success of his slushie business, bought all the kids ice creams. It was a shiny, fun-filled afternoon.
Followed by pizza and champagne and a jam at the shop with lots of strings and voices dancing together.
I keep working at this growing up thing. Keep wondering if I should be more ambitious, more organised, more productive. But then I realise, that most of the time (not all), I am happy. Content with my lot,, the way I spend my days, the being I am in this life.
And that's what makes me feel 'childish' in the best possible way.
