You're Not Twenty Anymore

I was complaining to Tristan in the car yesterday while on the way back from the doctor. "I'm too young to have high blood pressure and a bad back," I tell him.

"Well Mom, you're not twenty anymore," he says.

Leave it to Tristan to set me straight. "I may not be twenty anymore, but age is just a state of mind. In my mind, I'm twenty and holding."

"Your mind may be twenty, but your body is thirty-six," he informed me.

As if thirty-six is so old, you know?

I suppose to a sixteen year old, it is.
