Me: It will stunt your growth.
Daughter: Why can you drink coffee?
Me: Because I am done growing.
Daughter: No you’re not. You’re growing old.
Me: Touché.
This conversation on the way home from preschool this
morning made me think. I will be 52 on my twins’ graduation day from high
school; and 55 on my baby’s graduation day. So many people are having children
later in life these days, and it’s kind of a depressing thing now that I think
about it. I thought we were doing it the right way. I was able to have a career
for 12 years before having children. I was smarter, because I was older. I had
more life experience. I would have the advantage over younger parents. Ugh.
Turns out I’m just more tired, less patient, and more worried.
