Back in the day, "they" all said we were too young.
Too young to fall in love...
 |
| True love's kiss... |
Too young to know what we wanted...
Too young to get married...
 |
| At this point, we could barely believe we did it! |
Too young to move so far away from family and friends...
Too young to have kids...
 |
| Two kids in a little under two years. Wow! We look young...and tired. |
Too young is what we've always been, so we'll keep going, and our own kids have followed our lead. Both chose wonderful mates, and married in their early twenties (we were 18 & 19), and last year our oldest and his wife made us grandparents! Just in case you think we are too young to be grandparents, here's a video of our Peanut with her Pop-Pop (from July 2011)...
And if you need a little extra dose of cuteness, here's a little video from just last week, too!:
We are totally rockin' this "too young" thing, don'tcha think?
Have you ever been too young? What did you do?
This post is an inspiration. We got married at 24 and caught so much flack for being too young. That was 8 years and two kids ago....
ReplyDeleteThanks! And that must mean that you're rockin' the "too young" thing too...keep it up!
DeleteI was too young to go overseas by myself (18) and too young to meet my life partner (again 18). Unfortunately, he then made me wait 10 years to get married, so we're not too young anymore!
ReplyDeleteWe hear it all the time that we aren't old enough to move far away from family. That we will miss everyone being so close. But isn't that the point in it all? Aren't you supposed to try your own legs out? If we fall we fall, that was the approach when we were babies. I hope that all that were too young can do what you and your hubby did!! An inspiration for sure!
