[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Back on topic:  If I could have everything I have now, but just be younger, yes.  I am 45 with a 6 year old and a 5 month old.  At 38 with my first, it wasn't so bad.  At 45 with my second, everything hurts, and I am pretty fit.

That being said, DH is 50 and he and I still run around chasing the 6 y.o. and playing.  They do keep you young.

DH will be 69 and I'll be 63 when no. 2 graduates from high school.  [b]73 and 67 when she gets out of college.  Then we'll travel the world (oh, wait, we did that before kids)[/b].[/quote]

I could also be dead tomorrow.  I am not going to live life as if I am going to die at a certain time.  I lost my father to cancer when I was 10.  It hurt, but showered with love, I came out ok, and better than some whose dads were around until they were ancient like me.

I'd much rather bring a child into a stable, happy marriage.  I didn't settle just to get married and spit out kids.  I spent time getting to be married and enjoy it for a couple of years to make a stable home before having a kid.  Took us a while to have a fortuitous second.

My regret is more for my kids to get to know their grandparents.  I hope my mom, who was older when I was born, will be around a long time for my younger child.
