Your story touched all of us. Even though I've got 30+ years on you, I still remember all the firsts that my children have brought to my life. They still amaze me with their seconds, thirds, and million-ths!! Now I get to enjoy the grandkids' firsts, seconds, and million-ths. Keep doing what you're doing and posting all those milestones. You have enriched my day! Linda What a wonderful post, Tony!!! Your story touched all of us.

I missed the fun, wacky, crazy times of my 20's/college days, until I had my kiddos. Now, I am having the TIME OF MY LIFE. They keep me full of wonder about life, about what fun REALLY is... oh my gosh, and it just keeps getting better & better. My oldest is 5 1/2 and my youngest is 2 1/2, with an almost 4 yr. old stuck in between. They are too much fun... I'm going to miss them when they are in school all day... Happy Birthday, enjoy the next 30 years, celebrate LIFE! Love what you said about the best years are ahead of you… girl, you are right on!

I would have to agree with Dawn in that the 30 something years were great! The best is yet to come and it sounds like you are well on your way to knowing that already! To appreciate the little things and move forward without regret is so much better than dwelling on the shoulda, coulda, woulda beens! I can say this 'cause I've "been there, done that"! Thanks for sharing! What a great post! I would have to agree with Dawn in that the 30 something years were great!
