  • Quote: When it becomes difficult to shave your armpits.

    Mine are boney and concave at certain angles. That was a weird realisation in the shower!

  • When teenage son who lives with his dad comes over and u walk into the garage where he is and he says "who r u, oh hey mom"
  • When a necklace you wear all the time keeps getting longer and longer and longer...

  • when you have enough space between your thighs when sitting down for your cell phone to slip through and fall on the floor
  • When it makes more sense to put your napkin on your lap than around your neck.
  • When you pass by a big window in a store where you can see yourself and you can't believe how skinny your legs look.
  • I'll be honest - I'm not sure if it's the PMS or what, but reading these made me tear up this morning. It's been pretty awesome to sit down and take it all in. We've come a long way ladies. Every day isn't easy, but reading these and relating is pretty d@mn awesome.

  • When you're not constantly tugging at your clothes. (One I'm looking forward to experiencing again.)
  • When you fit into a regular size band of a woman's watch...with band to spare.

    Looky my new watch!
