I'm 59, mom died about 10 yrs ago at age 73, dad is 89 and living in OH as is my only brother and his family ... I go visit every few years. Talk to my dad often not much my brother....seems he only calls me with bad news, deaths etc so I hate to hear his voice on the phone.

My oldest dd lives about 2 hrs away.... my other 2 dds, 4 grands and one sil currently living with me and hubby...full house! But they are supposed to be moving in the next couple of months if not sooner. Awwwww, peace and quiet but will miss them terribly.

My mom is 76 and dad is 78. They had 7 children, six girls and 1 boy. I am the oldest, my brother and one sister live in Las Vegas. One sister is in Montana. The rest of us are still in NY within a 20 mile radius. My husband and I have been married 38 years, we had two boys, the youngest was killed in 2005, three months before his son was born. Nevan is the only grandchild we will have. He is very special.

We have a darling Granddaughter in law also, I didn't mean to leave her out. We wouldn't have the Great Granddaughter and the other one coming in Oct. without her.
