Damn I am getting old

[RoadWarriorYajuta]

I can't believe today is my 10th Anniversary. I was 24 and seemed to have the rest of my life ahead of me. Where did the time go? My kids are growing, and now I feel I have made the half way point of my life. The idealism of youth has been replaced by the harsh reality of the world. Yet I still feel hopeful. My kids will be embarking on their journeys into adulthood in the next few years. Man, I just feel lucky to have such an awesome Wife. She could have walked away when my back got screwed and I became unable to work, but she stood by me and has taken care of me. We have both grown so much since we got married, and we still are. You know I don't mind the struggles and always being broke. My Kids and Wife have made everything worthwhile. I wouldn't trade them or my time with them for anything.

I feel old alot, especially with two teens now. Great just when I get those two in check the younger two will come through and do it all over again. My Father laughs because the kids remind him of me. I am truly a lucky person. great wife and kids, but I swear I do feel old. Thanks dave, you are a good pal.
