I don't know if you have the problem of feeling younger than you are, but sometimes I suffer from the ailment. Sometimes when I see young people I still feel like I am one of their peers. But as I found out yesterday, which happened to be my birthday, I am no longer a youth. Here in South Africa among the Afrikaans people if someone is ten years old or older than you they should be addressed as Uncle or Aunt. Yesterday as I was in a place of business a young man walked past me. As he did he greeted me with "Hello Uncle".
My birthday is on October 30th and Micah's in on the 31st. So we got our picture together today.

:) You aren't the only one who suffers from the ailment of thinking you are younger. :) I still find it hard to believe that all those people I went to school with are old enough to be having kids! :)
