It's good to realise it though and work through it.. my dh and I went through something very similar amongst other things. At least you have realised it and are trying to change it that's what is most important not the years you have lost. I always try to look at it in terms of what you are gaining and marriage is all about growing together.

My pregnancy with Lydia was so filled with emotional pain (my xh) and this one pregnancy is so wonderful, that I wish sometimes dh was dd's bio father. I expect to cry like a baby next month during our adoption ceremony.

He is her daddy in every sense of the word other than sharing blood... that's truly special and I'm glad he's adopting her.

I have the opposite problem I think. I was so young when I had Ky. Most of the other mom's in his classroom are quite a few years older than me and I've always felt like I was frowned upon because of how "young I look". It's something I battled with from the get go with him. Jakobi I had him at a more "normal" age but I was still quite young. I'm truly happy that I started young but sometimes I feel very lonely because I lost most of my friends. Different lifestyles and all that jazz. I've never been one to act my age I've always been older than I truly am so I suppose that has factored into things some. I tease the few friends I have left that are just starting families that I'll be free and clear when their kids are just starting little league but then again here I am starting all over again myself.

Age is really just a number and fwiw the picture I saw of you on your blog you don't look older than me. Can I age as well as you, please?

DH will be 58, I'll be 57 when Thomas graduates from HS. We figure we'll just be that much closer to retirement!

A good friend of mine is just 6 months younger than me, and her oldest is a junior in high school, her youngest an 8th grader. She jokes that I'll still be changing diapers when she's chaperoning her daughter's senior prom. But it bugs me how "old" I'll be. My parents were always younger than most of my friends, so it's not strange to be this old, but it's a bit "outside", b/c I don't know many folks irl who are my age with young kids. |
