38 going on...

While talking to my friend Patti yesterday, our conversation brought to mind something that I didn't get to discuss with her, but I consider it a wonderful phenomenon...

A couple of years ago (maybe three) I started to notice twenty-something boys looking at me in a funny way.  At the time I thought it was a funny way, assuming they saw me as someone "older" who could have been something when she was around their age.  Or maybe they found it funny I had such young kids at my age.

I soon realized that those "funny way" looks were something way more when I started getting hit on by boys who could almost be my sons (at least in Biblical times).  

Now I understand the supposed "cradle-robbing" women like Demi Moore...  It's not something women do or go through, like the Swan Song of our youth or to feel younger.  As a matter of fact, I've never felt more attractive in my life without depending on a man (or men) to approve of my looks.  I'm with kids all day, mostly dressed down (understatement) with no make up at all and stressed out.  But I feel sexier than ever.

SO... in conclusion and a message to the world:  it's not the WOMEN robbing the cradle, it's those BOYS knock-knock-knocking on our clock-ticking doors!!!

Thank you very much.
