I am 44 and my youngest is 18. I knew I wanted to be DONE having kids by the time I was 25. I know that's young, but growing up and being a mom was one of my childhood dreams. I love parenthood. Still do even though my kids are grown. I was very mature for my age, didn't get into the party scene much...just wanted to be a mom. So, now that my kids are grown and off to college, hubby and I are finding each other again, and we're still young enough to go anywhere we want, do what we want, and don't have to worry about the kids! LOL. Just let happen what is meant to be. Sometimes, you just don't have any control over it whatsoever, and it's ultimately up to a higher power.
