Happy Birthday, No. 1!

The only time you really live fully is from thirty to sixty. The young are slaves to dreams; the old servants of regrets. Only the middle-aged have all their five senses in the keeping of their wits - Hervey Allen

Probably the happiest period in life most frequently is in middle age, when the eager passions of youth are cooled, and the infirmities of age not yet begun; as we see that the shadows, which are at morning and evening so large, almost entirely disappear at midday. - Thomas Arnold

After 30, a body has a mind of its own.- Bette Midler.

Everything I know I learned after I was thirty.- Georges Clemenceau

Time and Tide wait for no man, but time always stands still for a woman of thirty.- Robert Frost

You are only young once, but you can stay immature indefinitely.

Lookin' good, girl! - your mom.
