lynn Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 This week, on Feb. 28th, I will be a mother of a 20 year old. That is all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Rat Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Wow! What an accomplishment! I know it's bittersweet though. I have a 12yo and 10yo and know for sure that parenting isn't for wimps. So, I think you should be proud of having a 20 yo. :) Congrats and happy birthday to your kid!

plansrme Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 When I tell people the age of my oldest, I sometimes note, "I am the face of teenaged motherhood." I am not. I was nearly 30 when I had her, but it is the only way I can not be in my mid-40s. So how's this, "Geez, Lynn, you must have had kids when you were just a baby yourself..."

DianeW88 Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 My oldest is 22. So, unless I had him when I was 10, people already know I'm past 40. LOL It gets easier...especially when people are nice enough to say they don't believe I could have a kid that old. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liz CA Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 In April, I will have a 22 year old...but I am still 29. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melissa in Australia Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 I have a just on 19 year old! the other day a older man thought he gave me a compliment when he told me that I don't look as old as I am. I felt like shaking him and asking how old does he think I am! :glare: :glare: :glare: ~ I am not 40 for another year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hockey Mom Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Mine will be 21 in June. People are always surprised that I even *have* a DD, much less one that is that old. She's been at college since she was 18, and we only see her a couple time during the year, so it's usually just me and the boys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1bassoon Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 My oldest will be 21 in September - the age I was when I met my hubby. It is strange, isn't it? But happy strange! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liz CA Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 My youngest thinks I'm 25. . . . Keep it that way, honey. Better yet if your dh thinks you are 25... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
