Love that story - opposite of my doll tale!
DH and I were past 60 when the first grandson arrived. We had given up, pretty much, by that time. Both parents were 36 then. Then the second son's family started arriving after they were 40. Both of my grandmothers had babies after 40, but by no means their first.
