[quote=Anonymous]I imagined a big family, big dinner time discussions, lots of laughter, huge christmases and just a full house. All the things I never had as an only child. I believe we are stopping at 3. It's wonderful, but yeah it's exhausting. I absolutely love pregnancy and babies so I know that if my life were different (ie I didn't work and didn't have to pay for college) I'd have 5+ kids. What I didn't imagine: how challenging school would be. TERRIBLE hours, bad teachers, bullies that get coddled by the school. If I could keep my kids in daycare forever I would. Daycare was lovely. Perfect hours for working parents (DH and I stagger our work hours), caring teachers who actually talk to us (teachers never do) and lots of play for kids. My oldest can't even use the playground at school- they just have an outdoor gym with no toys or equipment. [/quote]
