I enjoyed staying at home and raising my children. Sure it cost us some big things financially, like vacations yearly. And driving older cars. But, I would never change it for the world.  I was home for the first 18 years. I went to work at my childrens grade school when my youngest and only daughter was 8.  I am thrilled, because I learned so much about computers, and I helped train others at work. Now, I find friends with the internet because I am retired and stay at home in the country with this wonderful link to the world.

I am disabled with arthritis/fibroymyalgia. To help my son and dil, I am babysitting my 6 month old grandson so they can save for their own home. These days it is hard growing a savings account. I might not have tons of money, but I have love to give and I am also the back up to my other grandson. He is in Kindergarten and doing fabulous.

IChildren, especially grandchildren are keeping me young despite my Arthritis and Fibromyalgia. Sure I have my bad painful days, but when I see those sweet faces I am instantly cured of any depression.
