[quote=Anonymous]My children are 4.5 years apart and our family is so happy about it. I specifically did not want kids super-close in age because I didn't think I could hack the early years which are so hard. My oldest was old enough to really realize what was going on during the pregnancy, went with us to ultrasounds, "helped" with the baby when he was little (tiny stuff like "Please bring Mommy the wipes"). And she is so much more understanding of his now-toddlerhood since she can actually reason, unlike a 1-, 2- or even 3-year-old. Plus, financially it is great - my daughter was in (free, public) kindergarten by the time I was ready to go back to work part-time and my son went to day care. Totally skipped the two-in-child-care financial strain.[/quote]
