Too old

On Friday I was finishing up tucking the boys in. Tim asked me how old I was, to which I replied 33. He looked at me for a second, then said "You're getting old, Mama." I laughed and said yes, I am. He looked at me a little longer and then said "No, you're getting really old."

With an introspective look on his face..."You're going to die soon."

By this point I was really laughing and said no, I think I'm okay for awhile.

What was really funny about it is that he wasn't saying it as though he was worried, just very matter-of-fact. Apparently 33 is the new 90! :)

Today is my last day of 33. I guess that means tomorrow I'll be really, REALLY old :)

After all, 33 was the age when that certain carpenter died. Your kid must be paying attention to his Bible lessons!
