What a lovely comment. Thank you.
Once we lose our parents the world changes. For me it was my mother, because my father was never in the picture. I don't think you ever really stop grieving...I lost my mother in 1986. Long time ago, but I still miss her.
You were lucky to have a grandmother that took care of you. Grandmothers can make wonderful substitute parents.
A strong marriage doesn't need children. Love. That's the thing that makes life worthwhile. Even without marriage, love of pets or others makes life rich.
I can tell by your writing that you are comfortable with your life. That is a gift. If children come, you will have that gift to share.
I'll try to share a picture of my granddaughter's graduation when it happens. It's hard to believe she is all grown up.
