Before I had children, I asked my father his suggestion. I’m the oldest. With younger sibs.

His response was: when you’re older you have more money but less energy. When you’re younger you have energy but almost no money.

Me: Dad, that doesn’t help.

“ Have them young baby, and you will still be young when they are adults.”

I’m mid 40s and all my babies are thriving adults. Grateful I took his advice.

Beautiful. Unfortunately, I’m on the older side, as I met my wife in our late twenties, but running around after toddlers has kept me young! 😂

LMAO 🤣 TBF, my pops was 29 when I was born so he was an “older father” in the 80s in our neighborhood. 🫂 Kiddos do that.
