Yeah, kids are great....

My daughter is 22 now, and my son will be 21 next month...how that happened when I'm still only 32 myself beats me!

:rodent:"Reminder to Jools - Time goes past in a flash, I think you'll find you blinked and went from 32 to 49 without even realising it"

Jools: "Oh yeah, thanks for reminding me rodent :sniff:"

Anyway, kids give you so much.

I remember when my son had just started school and he was sitting on the edge of the bed as I helped him put his socks on. He turned to me and said "I wish I wasn't five". "Oh yes", I said, "Why's that then". He shook his head sadly and said with a big sigh "Because I had so much more fun when I was younger"

So, all you'se with young kids...make the most of it, because in the blink of an eye they'll be grown up and you'll be an old git like me.

And never, never, never count up the amount of money they've cost you...cos you'll find you could have had a Desmosedici for every day of the week

I love children too...........
 

.............but I couldn't eat a whole one!





Sorry, didnt mean it, I'm only jealous :borg:

Yup, I'll endorse the feeling that when they're young, I lurve em, as long as they're my own

:rolleye::sniff::puzzled::roll::roll:

God you are a soppy lot! I have a drop dead gorgeous, 5'9" blond 24 year old highly motivated IT saleswoman for a daughter (dream on guys, u ain't gettin anywhere near her!!) who intimidates the life out of me and a 22 year old Sandra Bullock look alike, dreadlocked Eco warrior who is SO much like me I can't cope with her. But they are what it's all about. And at the end of the day, they are my best friends. :barfy:

Child bride Ruth ??? :o

Clearly, Henners. You've met me and - I hate to say it - pointed your evil lens at me. I just turned 35. Child bride - for sure!!! Just hope I never go abroad with any of you cos you might get a glimpse of my passport. ;)

So Ruth that makes you 11 when you had your first daughter and 13 on the second one - ok so on that sort of reckoning I must be 34 cos I've got a 22 year old!!!;)

But I've also got a 4 year old and they can give you the extremes of emotion - why do we put ourselves through it?
