Your New Family Dynamics

I make a point of devoting special time to each of my babies, but we spend so much time as a love-filled group. We have so much fun!!!

Ur also nuts Em! LOL!!

I would like to have another child - probably because I came from a family of 2. I felt that it was good to have another person who shared a very similar upbringing as myself, and that we can related to each other in a way that no one else can understand.

And when we were growing up, we always had each other to deflect any negative attention from my parents (e.g. yeah I broke the vase just now, but look, he broke the chair last week!).

Besides, I think if I was an only child, I would feel too much pressure to be the only one who has to live up to  all my parents' hopes and dreams! LOL.
