When I almost died, my youngest dropped out mid-semester to come take care of me and so did my oldest. My son, who lives with me, ran errands, cooked, and took care of the bills during that time. I would never have made it without them. I am so lucky to have them.

Have made thier parents very proud. We have two sons that have worked hard and have made a great life for their families. We have two grandchildren and one on the way. Our first (grandson) was a premie and was touch and go for a while and is now a rough and tumble little boy. Our granddaughter is the first girl born to my side of the family in 35 years. Both son's have taken it upon themselves to thank us for how they were raised, which really makes you feel good as a parent.
We also have a house full of fur babies too.

Well, it's not 'them', its just her. She is the most amazing person in the whole world and I don't even want to think about how empty my life would be if I didn't have her. Her smile lights up my days, and her love lights up my life. -

She kept saying how she would die for her brothers and sisters etc.. I tried to tell her that once she had her own it would be different. I was with her when her baby was born and she looked at me crying and told me that she couldn't believe this entirely new kind of love that she was feeling. Nieces and nephews are AWESOME, but your own will be even better, hard to believe, I know, but true : )

They are loving kids both my sons and my grand kids, but the little fellow in my profile is now in pre school and he has been sent to the principal already for fighting with his best friend and several parent notices for disruptive behavior, I hope he takes after his father and not his grandfather, or I need to quite deviling him. But dangit he has such a great little right cross. -

are my step-daughters and they like myself have their faults. For the most part they are respectful. They know how to push their fathers buttons (if you know what I mean). The youngest one (19) is very much the princess and all about herself. I feel sorry for her because she really is clueless about things. I don't remember knowing everything but nothing at all at that age.
The 21 year old has a 4 year old and another baby on the way. Oh My! She is very down to earth and appreciates all the help she can get.
The 23 year old has worked full time and gotten herself through college only to graduate and find out she needs more schooling. She's a doer and appreciates and helps out as much as she can.
The 28 year old - she's a free spirit. She comes and goes and comes and goes. There's no tying her down. Although she doesn't have much stability, she manages to keep the bills paid and is very helpful when she comes around.
My granddaughter is wonderful, she's 4 and asks a lot of questions. Her smile, hugs and kisses make me melt. -

My kids are super. They are both very respectful young ladies (I spanked them when they were toddlers. =รพ). They both are very smart, and do well in school. They are very thoughtful and sweet... except with each other!
My oldest is a little basketball star - the shortest girl on her team.
My youngest is an honor roll student.
I've put in a lot of hard work to grow the children I have, and I couldn't be more proud of them. -

They are actually miracles. I'm the mother of twins a boy and girl. The doctors told me that there was a chance they wouldn't make it when they were born because they were premies. Not only did they make it, they only spent 1 week in the hospital. They are 5 now and healthy as ever!!! Full of energy and life!!! Thank God for miracles!!!!!!!!!!
