Some people were confused. I have three daughter in their early 30's, 3 grandhcildren and heading in the early 60's
The trouble is, I still have the 18 year old spirit, but now with wisdom.
How about you?

I'm the same age with 2 daughters and 3 step daughters, 11 grandchildren and 11 other kiddies who call me 'nan' too from the extended families. if I had an 18 year old spirit -I'd drink it !!! I always thought retirement was the part of your life when you were supposed to slow down a bit and take it easy -ha ha ha . I've never been so busy and wouldn't have it any other way, really. Oh how I would miss the delectable tones of 'nan I need-nan I want -nan can I have- nan I'm the only one in the whole school who hasn't got a ....., nan, do you like the new Eminem song ? , nan, guess who's pregnant ?' That last one was from a 21 year old granddaughter telling me about HER mum. Thank goodness for my bus pass !!

I too am an almost Senior, with 2 grown up children in their early 30s, 2 grandchildren and mum to the hairy ones in the pic with me.
My outlook on life, well, I'm still the long haired wee Scottish Hippy but the hairs a bit snowy these days.

You are much younger than me! I got stuck at 29 and refuse to leave! That's a good one that has gone on for almost 2 decades now! Next year my son will be the same age as me!
Having the spirit of an 18 year old .... nothing wrong with that!
Share your wisdom!!!

I have a 32 year old daughter and two grandaughters 13 and 8. When I listen to any music that I enjoy and close my eyes I'm a teenager again. If it wasn't for the aches and pains we all have ,I'd probably act like one too---NOT
For those who don't know, I'm 64.

Me too, but the mirror tries to fool me constantly. Three sons, one daughter and seven grandchildren. The youngest one knows I am 18 in spirit.

well technically i am a grandmother
my husband was married before and had 4 children who have blessed him with 7 grands. i have 2 children, but neither one of them has any children
so --- i'm 47 and have a 15 year old granddaughter
hopefully she won't make me a great anytime soon
hopefully she saw what a struggle her mother had and won't make the same mistake
