[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ll be 48 when my first leaves and 55 when my third leaves. Which I guess feels like pretty good timing. I’ll still be young enough and have a few years left in my career. And hopefully if my kids don’t wait too long to have kids (assuming they want any) I’ll be able to help out with grandkids and not be a super old grandma.[/quote] This is me. I had kids at ages 30, 32 and 38. I guess ideally I would have had my third at 35 but I love the age gap. I lived during my twenties. Thirties was all about the kids. I’m getting my life back in my forties. I don’t want to be an empty nester. It isn’t necessarily something I look forward to. I love having my kids around. I see friends, travel with and without the family. I don’t have to wait for them to go to college.[/quote]
