Getting Old ??

I sent some pictures taken in Yellowstone Park to my sister-in-law. She told me that Thomas looks much bigger than the pictures she saw a couple of months ago and me looked really getting old.

Did I really look that bad on pictures ? maybe... for the last two year I looked much older than before, especially for the last year.

Sister-in-law came to our family since I was in high school. She knows my family very well. Like my mom, I always looked younger than my age. First year in the state when I started to work in a restaurant , one customer asked my manager if I was old enough to work. For the first several years in the states I was always asked to show my drive license to enter some places. Maybe that's the reason when I met Tony, he didn't realize I was older than he was. After Thomas was born I sent some pictures to Zhen and she told me that I looked nothing but like a 'real' mom. - I was a little bit upset about that. Now I'm OK with what my sister-in-law said about me. :)

Aging is irresistible. For the last year I've been seeing doctors more often than seeing Thomas' teacher. Being at middle age is tough. At home I've been struggling with 'boys'. Comparing at home I am less stressful at work, but still need efforts for that job.

One thing is encouraging though - the older you get , the more wise you could be.
