Since then I have become a mother if 3 beautiful mini humans, a wife to a gorgeous blokey, and have changed my job almost as frequently as my underwear!
But what have I learned? Well I have definitely been made aware that once you have children, your own needs are quickly forgotten about in an attempt to not only keep these mini beasts alive, but to also keep them happy and well rounded individuals. I have learnt that to keep said mini beasts happy and well rounded, I would quite happily stamp over still warm corpses to get them what they need!!
I have learnt that what other people think of you shouldn't matter, but does. But as long as that does not stop you living your life the way you want to live it, let them have their opinions.
I have learnt that in order to co exist harmoniously with a boy I sometimes need to compromise. Not all the time...but often enough that he keeps feeding us and keeps us in clean clothes!!
I have become more comfortable as me. I'm a bit quirky, and I don't always fit into "the norm" but those that matter don't mind, and those that mind don't matter.
What would I tell my 21 year old self if I could go back in time to my party? I would tell me that I will never have it so easy and carefree so make the most of it. Stop chasing boys who are clearly bad news. Make more time for family because they won't be there forever. You will NEVER be 7.5 stone again so give it up!!!
Anyway, I got lots of cards, pressies and birthday wishes but the best one of all has to be my tweet from Dr Karl Kennedy!!! Oh yes!!!
I swear by this stuff, I'm also pale and find the porcelain shade a good match for me.
