When I was a little girl my mother held my hand next to her's and admired my smooth pretty hands. I looked at her's and I could see the lines of wisdom. Now when I look at my hands all I can see is my mother's hands how ironic, scary, cool, comforting, and beautiful.
I think it's funny that you think your hands look old:) That's what everyone's hands look like!! I'm looking at mine and they have just as many crinkles as your's! You are too cute:) You are gorgeous and I really can't tell what your age is but you definitely look very young!
I could hide a small child in my knuckle wrinkles. But I'm with you – bring it on! Every year gets better. Do you think there comes a year when that is no longer the case?)
Jerusalem, I love this post – but then again, I love so much of what you do, especially those wonderful banners you made for me.
Do you think I could link to your post on my blog this week? It's a perfect subject for it. http://www.myfabulous40thbirthday.blogspot.com I think you know I've mentioned your banners on there before too.
Jerusalem, just wait! lol Your hands look so young and I try to tell my grown daughter if you want to keep them that way make sure you use sunscreen. We didn't know about that in my youth. By the way I love my wrinkles, even the ones on my face, the ones from smiling and laughing not the sun caused ones, lol. blessings to you, starrydeborah
