I'm interested in hearing who has children living at home, away at school, married, married with kids, etc. I'll start. I have a 19 year old son who is away at college. I also have another son (16) and a daughter (17) who are both juniors in high school. They are ten months apart. Our first two children are adopted. I got pregnant while waiting for our daughter to arrive from Korea. How about you?

Congratulations Speakermom your children are talented like their mom. Ou son is 23 too and going to the Community College here. He has worked at a Camp since he was 16, been a volunteer fireman since he was 17 and is now lifeguarding at the Y. He is considering other options for next year which may take him away from home.

I have one son. His name is Rain. He's 7 1/2 years old. He l-o-v-e-s- cars!! He learned to drive when he was 4 years old. (Don't ask) We start homeschooling in September. We are jazzed! Can't wait! He's a great kid. Too bad about his mom, though...(I am TOO OLD for this!) (am too, am too, am too!)

Vicki,
I can second that emotion. Steve and I have 5 kids between us. No one could ever by looking at our family guess whose kid was whose!
Oldest: Rob 35 yrs old, landscape contractor in Alabama. Wife and 4 sons
Next: Brian 34 years old, Captain in the Army, currently serving in Germany with wife and son and daughter.
Next: Craig 31 years old, Navy man and currently serving in San Diego with wife and two daughters.
Next: Heather, 27 years old. Mother of 3, 2 girls and one boy. Currently divorced and living in my home town, dating ex-husband.
Last but not least: Josh, 21 years old, currently serving in the Army Reserves, going to college, working full time, and has a SO and a 3 month old son. He lives about an hour from here.
That's it! Full house huh?
I love them all and would do anything for any one of them, and probably have!!

We have two daughters. Our oldest is 30, single (and looking...hahaha), and lives in her own home about 5 miles from us. She is a reporter for the Arizona Republic daily newspaper (Phoenix metro), and covers City Hall, the Mayor and various related issues important to city development.
Our younger daughter is about to turn 27, and has been married a little over a year to a special agent for the FBI. She lives in Alexandria, Va., and is the press secretary to a US Congressman from Tucson, AZ.
My son-in-law is about to turn 30, graduated from Notre Dame, earned his CPA, then decided after 9/11 to enter the FBI. He graduated first in his training class at the academy and he works in a counter-terrorism unit. They are all three great young adults (I consider my son-in-law my 3rd kid); I am very proud of all of them and lucky they belong to me!

I have two all grown and on their own. My daughter, Gina, is 35, married. She and her husband live a few miles from us. They have a big home and a cat. No grandchildren yet, but maybe soon. She's an RN, and a nurse manager. We work together and shop together. She proofs a lot of my writing.
My son, Ralph is 33. He's a carpenter, runs his own business. He now owns the house he grew up in - bought it from his mom a few years ago. Not yet married. Likes to travel and ride his motorcycle.
I have 3 stepchildren. Michelle is 33. She went to school with my son. Scott, is 26, a banker, like his dad. He and his wife, Brenda, are expecting a baby in July. This will be the first grandchild event for us.
Kevin is the youngest. I think he just turned 24. Had a birthday this month. He's single, works for UPS.
They are all good kids and all live near us.
