[quote=Anonymous]My fourth is 5 years old now. Oldest child is 11. There is absolutely no part of me that regrets having him. He is just a great little kid, makes everyone laugh, and just has a great little personality about him. And I have no anxiety parenting him, which is fantastic. I know what I am doing and what kind of parent I am, so there is none of the stress I have with my oldest where everything is new. One thing with having four though, is that for whatever reason, this is where you cross the line into “big family.” When I had one, I had one, two I had two, three I had three, but when I had four...suddenly people couldn’t remember if I had four or six or eight. When I went places with all of the kids, people would ask if they were all mine or if I was running a daycare. (It didn’t help that my best friend has five about my kids ages, so we often go out with all nine kids). It can also be difficult to find a sitter sometimes. [/quote]
