I will be 49 next week

and have a 2 year old, on my own.

I do feel exhausted alot. I wanted so badly to adopt another but just don't think I can handle it from the physical side (and single mother stress side).

I worry about being the old mom, especially when thinking about the fact that when I am 80 she will only be 33. I feel like I will miss alot of her life and she will be without a parent at a fairly young age. Even though we do have a very close family and my sister and brother would be like a parent to her.

Also worry about staying sharp enough to figure out what teenagers are up to by then. ;-)
