I agree! I gave birth to my son at 32, and adopted my daughter at 38. Now I am 40, with an 8 year old and a 2 year old.

And now, a year later we just finalized the adoption of our daughter who is 10. My one and only regret about having my kids later in life is that they will probably not have all four grandparents into adulthood. My parents are 86 and 83, while dh's are 73 and 70. Other than that I don't feel at all too old to be mothering these kids. Of course the fact that I look about 10 years younger than I am and have more energy than most 30 year olds I know doesn't hurt.
