Christie Brinkley is 70 years young, and she's celebrating in a beautiful way.
The model, who hit her milestone birthday on Feb. 2, took to Instagram this week to post photos of herself wearing a white bra, leggings and sneakers while flexing her arm and smiling wide.
She began her caption by saying that while looking in the mirror on her 70th birthday, she's "finally happy" with the person looking back at her.
Brinkley went on to write about how she's no longer critical and demanding of herself, but rather grateful and understanding.
She closed out the caption post, writing:
"I've put this body thru it
"I’ve broken every bone,
"in tiny miracles I’m all healed
"in my heart and soul I’m home
"It’s taken 70 years to get here,
"in tears and joy I’ve found my happy,
"so now I’m going to end this poem,
"before I get too sappy!
"Happy Birthday Indeed!"
