I just turned 54 this past May..but don't think I look it, I know I don't act it, and for the most part I don't feel it. I laugh sometimes when I think back at how when I was very young, I thought my mom or aunts were SO old....when they were the age I am now.
I know better now....50-something is NOT old.
I have 3 skin-kids ages 27(son), 22(son), and 19(daughter-getting married on August 2nd!) and one 7yr old grand-daughter. I also have a step-daughter(28) and 2 grand-kids by her a girl age 8, and a boy age 2.
Since hubby and I got married to late to have kids together we say that our 4 yorkies are the kids we never had together.
