Can't believe it happened! Reaching the next stage in life...

Notice something? See Princess Anna there (above left)?
Well... as well as our shared love of chocolate, singing & building snowmen, we also have something else in common.
(Hang on while I just go back & sing that fav line of mine: 'I wanna stuff some chocolate in my faaaaace'!
OK, phew, thanks for letting me get that out.)
OK, so while Princess Anna's streak of white hair was caused by her sister Elsa's powers, the new 'silver' strand that has recently appeared on MY head is my FIRST grey hair!
Instead of being all 'Don't let them in, don't let them see', I've decided to come clean with this huge revelation.
Even though I have many pals who've been rocking greys since their twenties, it's not something I saw coming. At 32, the grey has caught me by surprise.
Surprise you say? Yes, I'm surprised it took SO LONG for the greys to make their appearance.
It's been a busy/hectic/crazy/stressful/amazing/wonderful couple of months juggling newborn twins, a then-1year-old & then-3-year-old (who have since turned 2 and 4).
I would've thought those greys would've been sprouting all over my head months ago for sure.
So the one grey I've located I can handle.
Although I will admit that when I saw the unmistakeable sparkle whilst I was reviewing my appearance in the car mirror while doing my make-up - a shriek (& 'what the holy mother of god is that?!) may have been heard by passers by.
It's an interesting stage of life. A sign of what's to come.
I'm thankful for all the years I've managed to rock my natural brunette locks & will take this new stage in my stride as I'm thankful to be happy & healthy & to have a happy & healthy husband and children.
Besides, Miss 4 will love my new Cruella de Vil look!
Oh well, 'the greys will never bother me anyway'.
When did you find your first grey hair? What was your reaction?
