I become soooo proud..after I pick my jaw back off the ground, lol! 3 adult sons, all handsome, smart, and loving/kind, they all know and love JESUS! One has recently made me a first time grandmom., the other one WAS going to, but they just "miscarried", (sad)
What amazing blessings that the LORD has given me STILL, of all people,!! I am living proof that there IS a GOD!
At least you have Uncle Charlie to help you raise them......

Re: Offspring

One - 30 year old son - after 8 years of marriage - wonderful childhood memories - even when he did cause heartache, we knew God would see us thru, and He did!! now I have a precious 11 year old granddaughter who received the Holy Ghost last summer - and my son has a sweet, sweet wife of almost 6 years.

Re: Offspring

None yet, beginning to look like I'll never have any of my own. If I don't meet that special someone soon, I will probably adopt within the next two years.

Re: Offspring

3... and no more please.

We begin the slow procession toward empty nest syndrome soon. To some... empty nest is not a sad event. LOL...

I've got great kids... but dads seem to realize that their greatest accomplishment would be working themselves out of a job.

When they get out on their own and do well... that is a good thing.

Moms... not so much. They didn't appear to get that memo.

I am one of five children, and I would like to have a large family someday.
