Today I am Forty. 

All in all I'm pretty happy about that. Except that I'm starting to think that maybe those little lines over my kneecaps are there for good.

Hau'oli La Hanau from Hawaii!

1970 was a great year to be born. I know. I turned 40 Sept 30th.

Happy Birthday Heather! From my lofty vantage point (aka 50!) the forties are a good decade despite the bad rep. Enjoy!

Congratulations! I'm 40 this year as well and, while I don't feel my age, I'm noticing my nightstand is now covered in night creams and lotions to fight all my little lines.

A few lines turned into a funny drawing. Life is full of little stories, please keep sharing yours. You are such a great storyteller!

Happy birthday, Heather. I hope you have a wonderful day!

I turned 40 this year too. It's a really great time, I think, kneecap wrinkles and all.

Happy Birthday, Heather. If you are flexible enough to bend over far enough to see the lines above the kneecaps then you are still young! Or maybe you were using a mirror?

HAH! Congratulations! All my best friends turned 40 this year - I turn 40 next year. I love who we are and who we have become - I don't think I'd trade a day - because of what we know and what we've learned.... I would trade the knee that seems to creak/snap and the frown between my eyebrows.....~!!

Happy Birthday. Hope it's a good day. I have less than 2 weeks in my 30's. Oh, today's my Grandma's birthday too. I guess it has to be a good day. :)
