Hello Tonja welcome to over 40yrs old mums................you must be a proud mama with 4 wonderful children........and the oldest boy of 21yrs oldest going to the U of of M of course with all that under his belt he will be able to move on to bigger & better things for his future in life.......that's excellent! Plus your 18yr old daughter will be Graduating this year & keeping active is always good thing & healthy as well.........wow.........you must be very very proud.............and you deserve it!.........another Gradu.........your other daughter 14 yr old will be going to high school.............and active as well.............then your 13 yr son also is active...........wonderfull sounds like a happy family so nice to see a family that works together!  Your hubby is driving across country every day...............that is hard work for him & for you...............because he you hold everything in household down & make sure everything is going smoothly...........Tha's a full-time job in my book.................but your family sounds wonderfull..........

My name is Jeanne I have 3 children my older son Sylvain is 19 years old with Twins Matthieu (ADHD) & Natalie will turning 17 years old on the 3rd of March. I'm a single mom over 40 will be 45 this coming May. Yes it's tough but I wouldn't change it or change them for the world!

As for me with 3 teenagers............tuff...but I tell them I will not tolerate that kind of behavior or that is not acceptable in this house.........that's the main thing, because with teen years then want to be 20 years old and they know everything. Another trick I did last year I changed all my portable phones and know I 2 desktop phone.....with help I can keep track how long they're on the phone......(shhh I partially listen to there conversation this helps a little) I also have about 4 calendars in my house each with there name on it .........and I keep track of dates such a prepare for test, when project are due. I have a lot of little tricks up my sleeve...ect...lol

I've battling chronic depression + anxiety for over 15 years and now I have Fibromyalgia  this major work for me to be a stay home mom, and sick......because I loved my career and working Mom.........my doctor after 2 years wants me to go on disability........I finally agreed, but very difficult to do at my age......they I sort of look at it will say on my tombstone that I was a good career women........God must have a plan for me..........because he put me in this direction for a reason!
