I'm a quarter of a century old

This past weekend was a whirlwind of sweets & treats,

cocktails and bottles of vino,

lots of cheese and pasta and snacks galore,

belly laughs that brought on tears,

music that was sung along to entirely off-key,

and dance moves that we thought were hot

but were most likely ridiculous.

This past weekend my favorite people came together

for my 25th birthday and

I’m still recovering from all the indulging

and going through withdrawals

from all the love and laughter.

I’m a very lucky girl,

and approach my 25th year

with eager hope and excitement  : )
