I definitely enjoyed id="hidden8" motherhood even more in my 40s than when in my 20s, though it was harder on my body. After my initial shock, i refused to let anyone, medical or otherwise, treat us like victims or act like something terrible happened. I was annoyed they didnt sayfor your beautiful precious baby boy!

@Linda-xp3ig3 years ago Ive reached the overly ripe old age of 70 and i must say, im so envious of the size of your beautiful family.
