dudes, I'm 56 and have 3 great-grand children and another on the way. If I had it to do all over again, I'd just skip the kids and go straight to grandkids, they are much more fun and when they get on your nerves you can send them home with their parents! :lol:


My mother said something similar after my daughter was born. Heh heh heh. Grandkids are apparently where it is at. I completely understand the beauty of all of the fun minus all of the hard work. A beautiful concept, methinks.

I became pregnant for the first time when I was sixteen... If any of my children follow suit I could be one of those younger grandmothers. Clearly others have me beaten, but still, I think it will be nice to not be too old when grandchildren come around so I might have more energy to do things with them. Even if they wait until they are forty to have kids, I will still be young.
