So yeah, I guess the lines are inevitable, but also kind of shocking when you feel so youthful on the inside.Mary Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15147791473133449106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8224074171829015497.post-12655081922930471892009-03-15T14:51:00.000-07:002009-03-15T14:51:00.000-07:00Hi MaryBeth,My face gets lines, too.

I hardly drive our car, do so much on my beloved bike. <BR/>And I think the children keep us young in our minds, playfull and imaginative. At least that's what I see of you.<BR/><BR/>Love, RiaRiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10945104361581786518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8224074171829015497.post-25234797901366773442009-03-14T18:27:00.000-07:002009-03-14T18:27:00.000-07:00You look great, but yes, I am finally feeling like...You look great, but yes, I am finally feeling like I am aging, which I don't mind (given the alternative) but like you I wish I had a little more get up and go!Gift of Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13843779880769352257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8224074171829015497.post-52793117501542949072009-03-14T17:29:00.000-07:002009-03-14T17:29:00.000-07:00I still never consider myself to be very photogeni...I still never consider myself to be very photogenic. I am amazed though at so many women who seem to be more comfortable in their own skin. I too find that I want to capture this moment in time. (Actually, I wish I had captured 38!) I don't know if we are better photographers or just take better care of ourselves. I overheard a woman in the store the other day, who I had always thought of as being 10 years younger than me, say she was 48! I think the fact that we do pay so much more attention to our health is paying off in the most visible ways by the fact that many of us just look younger than say our mothers did at the same age. But I still wish I would have held on to 38 a little longer!Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06982929387578520372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8224074171829015497.post-24752385097310337622009-03-14T16:33:00.000-07:002009-03-14T16:33:00.000-07:00That soup looks delicious, and although I have the...That soup looks delicious, and although I have the cookbook, I haven't tried it yet. Must do that soon.<BR/><BR/>You look lovely, btw, and match the green week quite nicely. :)Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17002360993206729015noreply@blogger.com
