[quote=Anonymous]My son isn't yet grown.  However, I do have 2 older brothers.  One of them was my mom's favorite and the remained close her whole life.  The other had nothing to do with her.  She didn't much care for her girls, but in the months of her final illness an on her deathbed, her boys were not there to help her.  Her girls were by her side.  I pray for a different relationship with both of my children.  I think a lot boils down to personalities, relationships with inlaws, distance, respect.  Sadly, only time will tell.

Enjoy your son and delight in his life.  You cannot control what happens in the future.  Congratulations on your little boy.

(If it helps, I cried when I found out I was having a boy.  I had always wanted a little girl (I think to love her in a way that I was not loved).  My son is the apple of my eye and I wouldn't trade him for the world.  Things worked out best for me.  I will treasure the moment and let the future unfold as it will.)

Congrats, OP![/quote]
