No, just the one, but he is a big one! DD will be Class of 2016. When did I get so OLD!

I'm telling you, stop thinking that way. Old ? pshaw! Plan on growing old disgracefully with an accent on planning on lol

What a nice thing to wish on someone. Growing old disgracefully, but oh so happy.

I look at it that so much of our lives we have to consider others, work, household commitments etc, that when finally we reach later years, that's the time to throw your bonnet over the wall and let it all hang out. I willingly admit that I let myself come first with myself now and I'm loving it. I also will allow something to wait for another day, which I never used to do. Come to think of it, I don't even know what I thought would happen if I did not do everything immediately, even sooner lol

Goodness me. How much did you *weigh* just before giving birth to the sesquicentuplets?

DD still has 2-1/2 years of preschool since she was only two when she started. I haven't even bothered to calculate what her graduating class year will be. My birthday (38) was Wednesday and I'm really feeling OLD.

Poor Baby, (LOL)

I will be 70 next birthday!! Talking of feeling old, you have many years of adventures ahead of you!! I was thinking back to when I was 38, and the myriad of experiences, happy and sad, that I have lived since then! Enjoy every day of your life to the fullest. It will never come back, but there is so much ahead of you!!

Incidentally my father always said a woman was at her best at 35 years old. Still attractive, and poised, educated as well!!

Whatever you thought at the time, it probably had something to do with what other people would think of you if you didn't "whatever it was." I konw

I'm going to hang onto that comment. It seems like something that should be charted, stitched and hung on the wall. You wouldn't mind, would you?

No I wouldn't but maybe you should google it, I don't believe it was an original thought, but something I heard.

Sounds a lot like Bette Davis who said "Old age is no place for sissies" and another one I really like "I'd marry again if I found a man who had fifteen million dollars, would sign over half to me, and guarantee that he'd be dead within a year"

Normally, it wouldn't feel so bad, but Thursday I slipped going back up the driveway after DD bus came and everything just aches. STILL

Brenda - I have a decade on you (more or less). I was nearly 40 when DD was born.
