Yes. I’ve heard of mother’s being a surrogate for their daughters who cannot conceive but it’s definitely a high risk pregnancy. Thanks, Liz.

Shocking news, yes. Terrible twos now. 🙄 An unexpected travel souvenir. 🍀😲😂 Couldn’t resist a little humor. I love the TT. 🎶 About your logo… you know today is international elephant day? I’ve learned from other bloggers. Cheers! 🐘

Now that’s an interesting question! How many women go on a singles cruise and return a double? 😂 I’m sure more than we think.
You would think I’d know something like that! You’re the first person to tell me it’s National Elephant’s Day! 🐘 🩶

Yes, beautiful elephants have an international and national day. A month to plan. 😊

The average age for menopause is around 51 years old, however, a woman can still get pregnant after menopause, but the chances are slim.
