I was 36 and my hubby was 45 when we adopted our son. The baby was 10 months old, so we were actually 35 and 44 when he was born.

Now my hubby is 60, I am 51 and the kid is 16!

I was 36 and DH was 40. I'm 37 now. Now, do we want to talk about how old we FEEL?? before and after the adoption??

THERE ARE EIGHT DIFFERENT WAYS YOUR CHILD CAN DIE ON A CORDED WINDOW TREATMENT
Read "How Safe Cords Kill" at www.pfwbs.org

THREE CHILDREN HAVE STRANGLED TO DEATH SINCE ANGEL DIED ON 8/11/09.
Brandyn Coppedge died on 9/11/09. Rosie Smith died on 9/30/09 and Thapelo Kwofie died on 11/1/09. The Consumer Product Safety Commission is no longer recommending safety kits. They are now recommending that anywhere children live or visit should be free of corded window products.

I also have bio and adopted children. I was 19, Dh 23 when T was born. We brought home our girls 1 week before my 31 birthday (this year) and DH was 34.
I was 28 and DH 32 when A was born, 29 and 33 when K was born. What a difference a decade can make when it comes to staying up at night and chasing toddlers all day!
