Makes Me Feel Old!

[Big Sage, SASS #49891 Life 939]

I know the aches and pains, having friends die and looking at old pictures make me feel old. But it really hit home when my son turned 55 today! Damn just seemed like yesterday when my wife and I brought him home from the hospital. He just bought himself a new truck for his birthday Happy Birthday to son Steve......!

I'm with you, Big Sage, my son turned 52 this past June and my daughter turned 50.  DANG IT!  I AIN"T THAT OLD, AM I?

 

May you get to play with your Great Grandchildren!

I'm with you old fogies! My son turned 50 this October and my other son in 52!

Well getting old has some benefits. My first great grand child was born end of July. What a feeling, and holding him is worth anything I have to put up with to be here.

Two grandsons.  The "boys" are 27 and 23 respectively.  Both are hunkering at my daughter and son-in-law's until we get a vaccine.

My three remaining boys are in their late forties to early 50's . Enough grand kids to almost need name tags. One great grand child so far. When I get up in the morning or during the day my legs definitely let me know I'm that old.

Face up to it:  We are old.  My son turns 56 in March and my daughter will be 54 in May.

 

Doesn't seem possible because I'm still a kid playing with toy trains and cowboy guns  and going "VROOM VROOM" when I drive my car.

Growing OLDE ......

My parents said the same thing when I became a grandpa in 2018, and turned 55 in July.

Right. Three of our 12 grandkids are married, and the first great grand is on the way.

 

Three of our 5 kids now in their 50s....We're 72; started early with 3 kids by age 22, five by 28. It's paid off nicely!

 

To paraphrase William Saroyan: I always knew that everybody got old, but I thought an exception would be made in my case!

Mr. Red,

   I think the word "thought" should be changed to "expected".

                                                                                        respectfully

Listening to you children makes me feel like a trail blazer. I got my fourth (4th) GREAT GRAND CHILD last August.

From my three daughters , aged 58, 56 , and 50 , I have 7 Grandchildren , who have between them 16 Great Grandchildren , ranging from the oldest at 21 years , and the youngest born last May.

Our youngest turned 35 on the 19th...
I told her she is now more than half my age... so she is getting old faster than I am...
