My mother always maintains that her 30s marked the most productive period of her life. She feels that it was the height of her creativity, ambition, and ability to follow through. I’ll be 29 in a few months. I’m starting to understand what she meant.

Me too. Lots of women have told me that they loved/are loving their 30's. I think it's a combination of hard work paying off and self-acceptance.

They've been the ost challenging for me by far. I'll be 36 in May :)

Challenging, yes. Then again, think of what would have happened if you had been hit with those challenges in your early twenties. Let's see what you've done in your 30s:

- Had a beautiful, charming little boy
- Taught yourself web and graphic design
- Built web site, that over the years has helped several thousand women, and received television coverage four or five times.
- Started and operated another groundbreaking business that has served as an inspiration for other daycares, and that also received media coverage.
- Started and maintained a photography business.
- Started and maintained a web design business
- Started an internet wooden toy business, with no overhead, that brings in some cash.
- Manage your father's internet business, including the creation of the e-Commerce module.
- Took your son on a Caribbean vacation.
- Helped more people in a tight spot than I can count.

This is just the stuff I can think of off hand, but I know there's more. If anything, this just proves my point. Okay, things are really tough for you right now, but there is no question in my mind, that you will rebound from this. Besides, your 30s aren't over yet. You're only half way through. Just think of what the next few years will bring.

I didn't want to ask this in abortiondebate so I wouldn't aggravate the mods (it has nothing to do with abortion) but may I ask where you got your icon? I see everyone with them and I think they're cute =p

The e-mail button wasn't working for me, so you may have to either take a screenshot and photoshop it, or print it to a PDF or something, and work with it that way.

Cheers =D
