We have two girls, 18 months apart. It was hard at first, and I didn't get to baby the first one as long as I would have liked, but it's nice having them so close in age. Before our youngest went away to college and found a boyfriend, our girls each considered her sister to be her best friend. How much better can it be than that?
The toughest part is that the time flies by, and they are both out of school and in college, and their becoming independent. It would be nice to still have a child in school. I originally wanted 4, but it did not turn out that way. I think 4 would have been better. The first two as we had them, and then a third about three years later with another 18 months after that. 2 pair.
But, God knew what we could handle, and actually, I wouldn't change a thing. If only I could get them to listen to me more and try harder in college!!!!! 'Lissa are you reading this???
