I'm married with no children. All my friends have children in various stages of maturity. I think the pendulum swings both ways in my situation. At times I am envious of my friends and their children.....and at times I am happy for my independence. I think my friends might say that they wish for some of my independence as well. Seems it's true that the grass may SEEM greener in other places.........but for the most part I am happy in my situation as there really is nothing I can do about it at this point so, I am resigned to sharing a friends experience with their children and then going home to share my life with my husband. It's a good life!
