You made me smile :-)<br /><br />Rainy, I entirely agree. The "no responsibility" days are definitely missed. Hopefully we can both "stay young at heart" :-)<br /><br />Kerree, Older? yes. Wiser? I guess. lol.<br /><br />Erin, some surprises in life ARE joyful. I look forward to more of those :-)<br /><br />Joey, you are wise beyond your years.

I think it is just an age where we fell less doubt about our actions and more self confident.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05904475961832992495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7787944152935044192.post-69332202791677210272009-08-29T20:55:14.035-04:002009-08-29T20:55:14.035-04:00First off, awesome heading.

I've seen people barely able to maintain 1 kid, let alone 4. and that fact that you've raised them to adults is an accomplishment as well.<br /><br />the face you have should always fit, because its nothing but what you've made for yourselfJoeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15240713759801509294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7787944152935044192.post-11273955189128740172009-08-29T20:09:40.571-04:002009-08-29T20:09:40.571-04:00Hi, I really enjoyed reading your story.

Life is full of surprises and I've learned to enjoy that.erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16226994018462948076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7787944152935044192.post-22545945789969482212009-08-29T09:40:45.715-04:002009-08-29T09:40:45.715-04:00I had 4 by the time I was 28 so you beat me by 2 y...I had 4 by the time I was 28 so you beat me by 2 years. But I never wanted to be married with children. It just worked out that way. Well the marriage part didn't work but I'm quite happy with the children. I dreaded turning 30 for a year beforehand but when I did turn 30 it wasn't even a big deal. Now I'm not too worried about turning 40. Older and wiser and all that hey?Kerreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00024190266950080861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7787944152935044192.post-2921645585150690542009-08-29T04:44:04.528-04:002009-08-29T04:44:04.528-04:00Isn't it weird how "old" always look...Isn't it weird how "old" always looks different depending on where you are. I remember as a teen thinking that 30 was OLD. And when I turned 30 I thought, "I'm not old, now 50...that's old!"...couple more years I'll be 40, and I'm sure that will change again. Sometimes I miss the innocence of youth, and I miss having no responsibility. The parents took care of the food, and the house, and the lights always just came on...and now I have to worry about all those things. But I don't miss being young...just trying to stay young at heart (I know, I hate that phrase too).<br /><br />Thanks for visiting my blog, I like yours. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03097673387676022107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7787944152935044192.post-2588144876089886902009-08-29T01:16:13.695-04:002009-08-29T01:16:13.695-04:00I would like to hear more of your perspective abou...I would like to hear more of your perspective about life and what you have learned, especially over the last eight years.
