I had my first daughter when I was 22 and she was 22 this week!! We had been married 3 years when I was 22 and it's our silver wedding in June, for my sins. Not what I would call a happy marriage, lots of problems one way or another, but have to say I am really saying it's make or break this year. I can remember my mum and dads silver wedding like yesterday, taking my daughter to get a present, it's frightening how time flies.

I was two years married, son wasn't even a twinkle in my eye, living and working in London as a PA, and enjoying the city life. Now 41 with a 16-year-old son, married almost 21 years and living in a semi-rural town, as close to my Devon roots as we could get. Currently on sick leave from my job as a school administrator due to a flare-up of ME. Mandy :)
