[quote=Anonymous]I am the youngest of daughters. I know my dad was disappointed he never had a son, and by definition I was his last chance. And you know what? I'm ok with that. I know he adored and loved me, and I also know that he would have been a great father of sons if life had worked out that way. It is, in a way, a shame that he never had that chance. I agree with pp that it's okay that you feel this way - it's all about whether you let it overwhelm you to the point that you don't enjoy and celebrate raising your daughters at the same time. I think we all have things about our lives that we are a little wistful about. What if we had married that old boyfriend, what if we had taken the risk on that job we turned down...what life might have been like. Some of which were up to us and some of which weren't.[/quote]
