35 is young! Many of my friends are starting their families in their 40s. I had my first at 21 and my last at 34. I vote for older! LOL I am SUCH a better mom now. In my 20s I was a good mom, but I was still young and without too much life experience. Plus I wasn't as well off financially. While that isn't everything, it helps with the stress levels! I think part of it, for me, was having seen how fast the time had gone with the older kids. I sat on my butt and rocked babies whenever I possibly could in my 30s! My kids still will cuddle with me and they are 13 (boy) and 11 (girl). (My 19 yr old is 6'2" 200lbs, he tries to cuddle but...LOL) My girls are 22 and 24 and they are real huggy with me but they cuddle the little 2. It is just so nice! Good luck to you, you have TONS of years left! Love, Debi
