well, i just found my first wiry gray hair yesterday. heck, why wait 'til 50? :)

i hope to be sitting on the porch of a house that i've put all my creativity and heart and soul into. there will be pretty things on old shelves, whiteware in open cupboards and family pictures on the walls. clinks of the piano keys will be coming from inside the house - my husband will have explored his passion for music.
we will wonder aloud where the years have gone and think how blessed we are to have such beautiful children with such beautiful, creative spirits.
we will have spent years barbequing on sundays with our closest friends and our scrapbooks will be filled with things collected during our many years of travels.
and our wrinkles will be there - the telltale sign that we have faced life head on.
