Being Older...

So i guess being older isn't all that.. You know when your younger & you always say i cant wait till I'm older & i can move out of my house. Wow never in my life did i think i would want to take that back.. Especially around the holidays.. When i see my niece and my nephews open their gifts at Christmas it just takes me back to when that was me. I just didn't realize how much i would miss my youth i took it for granted when i know i should have just lived it up. But my background & all the things i went through as a kid pretty much made me have to grow up fast. Im still learning to grow up & i am very thankful for all that has happend & all that will happen in my life beacause i know it all happens for a reason...
