[quote=Anonymous]Grateful to have had my dd at 39, but then having another turned out not to be in the cards for us even though we really would have liked to have 2. DD has asked us for a sibling now & then, especially when her friends started getting younger siblings. Overall she's happy though, and has a tight group of friends and their parents who also look out for her. Having a child later than I planned to turned out well for me in a lot of unexpected ways. I was better off financially, and had WAY more patience and emotional maturity than I did in my 20s. One kid has turned out to be very portable, and I love spending time with her and sharing our interests as she grows. It wasn't the plan, but it's been beautiful. I grieved the one I never had, but am not sorry for the life as a parent that I do have.[/quote]
