On Aging At 47 Years Old

Everyone experiences the aging process at some point in their lives- growing pains and outgrown clothes for children, awkward body developments and voice changes for teenagers. What about adults? For me, it's been the sagging in odd places, squishy waistline, and the difficulty to get out of bed in the mornings. I've never just popped up but now I have to sleep more and the actual process of putting my feet on the floor takes longer.

For the past six months or so, my eyes have gotten worse. So I broke down and started using reading glasses, and I'm so glad!

Mary got her braces off too!

The wrinkles and the achy knees bother me, but I know this is a process that began in the Garden of Eden. Because of sin, my body is dying. But I'm glad for the things to come - more grandchildren!
