38 NOT OLD!!!!!

Speaking as someone who will turn 38 next month, it is not old!!!!!When we adopted our third I was 36 and my dad said, I don't know..... you are not getting any younger. Pretty ironic since they were 38 and 42 when I was born. I really think that our parents generation sees aging in a much different way than we do. People are living a lot longer, taking better care of themslelves are better informed and are staying active and healthy as a choice. Many women have their first child in their thiries and fories now. In my son's second grade class I am about in the middle age wise for the parents. A few are youger but quite a few are in there fories and even fifties. I say don't sweat it. If you want to parent this baby go for it and do it joyfully!
