Someone said to me the other day, "I hate to spoil it for you, but 32 feels like 31." And I'm assuming like how 30 felt, right? That couldn't be further from the truth as it relates to me. In all honesty, I feel better than I did at 25! Well, maybe because at 25 I was 7 months pregnant with my third son, but that's besides the point:-)

I feel AMAZING this year! I'm sure taking control of my health plays a huge part in that. I also think that it's true what they say about this shift that happens when you reach your 30's. I feel free. I feel more connected to me than I ever have. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I'm feeling more aware about my wants and needs, more aware of what I can do without, more accepting and understanding of all the things I've been through, and definitely ready for the years to come! Everything is different for me now. And dare I say my sex life is like the best it has EVER been? Yeah, I said that!

Anywho, I feel good. 32 feels good. I'll be out celebrating with a few friends tonight. Nothing big. Just dinner and a slumber party. A FREAKING SLUMBER PARTY!!! At a hotel. In Buckhead. (Insert girls gone wild videos lol). I can't even.

Before I sign off, I have to share this picture that my oldest took of me this morning. He said, "you look great mom. Can I take your picture?" I never pass up a photo op!

Yeah, I have never felt better than I do now. I can only imagine what the rest of my years will feel like.

Stay inspired ladies,

Lakeitha
