    Aundrea... How sad... Have you wondered if there were a reason she had you so young? Like someone knew she needed to start early and live life as fully as possible before she left? Young parents are often looked down upon, but in your case you were very lucky that mom started early and gave you a good start before passing...

    Oh. Because you know, it seems to me that, aside
    from being a little mentally ill, she's pretty normal.

    Seems so true. in 1964 a 20 year old single woman with a kid was not popular. (often called some unpleasant names)

    Lost her at the ripe old age of 62, She took an early retirement, got 3 pension checks and passed away.

    Mom made sure the house was paid off, the truck was taken care of and she even caught up all the back tax leaving a clean slate.

    She was instrumental in my love of reptiles, It was she who caught that first garter snake for me, and handed over the snake.

    SHE was the one who encouraged me to keep Xena when we found her.

    THANKS MOM!

    My mom had me when she was 16. I was an oops. My dad was 18 at the time. My parents got married right away but didnt last. They were only married for 4 years and I was 4 when they got divorced. Mom remarried and had 2 more kiddies. My moms mom (grandma) is only 56 years old. She was 16 when she had my mom and my aunt who is my moms sister is only 4 years older then me. We are super close. She had her first child when she was 17 so Guess who drilled in my head NOT TO GET PREGNANT AS A TEENAGER LOL. I got pregnant with my first child when I was 23 so I broke the chain LOL.
