[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 687971, member: 1550"] My youngest turned 18 when I turned 60 and I loved every minute of giving up an empty nest to Sonic and Jumper. I still find my best times either my kids or grandson. Being a mom was my #1 identity and career. The part time jobs I took meant little to me beside my family. If I had bern career oriented I'm not sure this would have worked. Sonic required a lot of intervention. You know yourselves better than us. Trust me when I say what my mother told me, but I did not believe...you change as you age, and it is more than health...my personal health has been good all along. If you love having kids around and don't mind not having an empty nest maybe for a long time, go for it. If you have strong wishes to do things without young kids, that will make it harder. Good luck. You are doing a very necessary and positive thing for these kids. [/QUOTE]
