Getting older isn't just about arm flab or memory loss. It has its advantages like senior discounts or two for one at IHOP (between the hours of 4 and 6pm only). It's not much different than the terrible twos but without the spankings....that is unless you want one.

Don’t you just hate it when your kids grow up?
When I was a young mother I never thought that one day I’d long to hear the squabbles of two little girls down the hall. I never knew I’d close my eyes some day and try with all my might to recall the smell of my sweet little babies after a bath. I never knew I’d ache one day to feel them once again snuggled in my lap ready for a story. I never knew that one day my house would be so silent.
Well, I once longed for them, and then I got them back in the form of grandchildren! Maybe you will too.
ReplyDeleteI gave up on that awhile back. My daughters are now 38 years old and neither of them have children or plan to have any.
