I understand completely. I have four children and I had them all early (starting when I was 22). I would have liked to have another a bit later in life as I've learned and grown quite a lot. Not that I've been a bad or aloof parent. I'd like to think I've done pretty darn well, just that experience and patience that comes with age would make the experience even better. That is no longer an option as W is recovering from a hysterectomy. Oh well, grandkids won't be too far off. My kids are 19, 18, 16, & 14. I'll make a great "pop pop".
Gone the carvings and those who left their mark. Gone the kings and queens, now only the rats hold sway.
