    I would have to say any of my thirties. And while I am only two-almost three years into them, they have been great. But it might have something to do with the idea that I am done having kids and now I am enjoying them.

    My thirties have been easy… but turning 29 was terrible! I was celebrating with my sister and she kept telling everyone I was turning 30. Then I’d say no, I’m 29 and no one would believe me. Terrible that year, but made actually turning 30 not so bad!

I have an amazing husband, two beautiful sons, and a daughter on the way and due in 2014. I no longer have the stigmentation of you need to be accomplishing something that you can have in your 20’s.

    Fun how people always say that their high school time or whatever school time was best and that nobody so far mentions that age… I wouldn’t want to go back either though, pff…

    I think I loved 28 or so the best. The year my hubby and I wandered around the world for a year. We didn’t see half of what we had planned, we fought like crazy (in the middle of a train station in Holland no less) but we built a stronger base for our future that year. We’ve lost a bit of that magic at the moment and so I think about that. But then having our son at 31 was pretty amazing too. I guess a lot of it was great, so don’t know the real answer!

    For me, it would be a toss up…. I had my kiddo at 27… so that was a very good year,.. But I met my husband in 2006, got married in 2008… so those years are very good also!

    happy birthday!

    The thirties aren’t that bad! I’ll be 32 next month and feel just the same as I did in my twenties, although I think my memory is getting a little foggier! 馃槈
    Love the shoes!

    I love those shoes! The pattern will just barely fit my daughter though now who is 22 months. But these would make the cutest baby gifts! You are so talented. I love your blog so much!

    I just turned 30 at the end of September. I hear that thirties are the best, so I guess we’re in luck! Happy Birthday!
