[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Andrew, Matthew, Madeline and Lauren[/quote]

Andrew is your step-son who has been a part of your life since he was two and he proudly calls you "Mom". Matthew and Madeline were the twins you eagerly welcomed after thinking you might never have kids of your own. And Lauren was the surprising result of a spontaneous weekend trip to Luray one snowy, winter weekend. Your house is a happy, chaotic, noisy place and you like it that way. The calendar is color coded and packed with notes and logistics. Thank goodness Andrew is now driving and is able to help with the transports that are needed to chauffer everyone to the soccer/gymnastics/piano/fencing lessons. Your husband frequently makes longing comments about retirement and finally having an empty house, but you know that when those days finally do arrive, he will be sad about it. He's a big push-over when it comes to the kids and you do the heavy task of behavior control. Luckily all of the kids are generally well-behaved (well, except for that biting stage that Lauren went through....three different preschools and lots of nasty phone calls from potentially litigious parents). Your annual family camping trip is something you both dread and adore. You hate all of the work that goes into preparing, but once you get the camp site set up, you love sitting around the campfire, laughing with your kids, and eating s'mores. You occasionally contemplate doing a cruise, because so many of your friends rave about them as the ideal way form of family travel, but you just can't wrap your mind around being smashed into tight spaces, eating meals with nosey strangers, or the amount of money that it would require for a family of six "to cruise".

Andrew's mother, your husband's crazy ex, has really played a minimal role in his life, until recently...now that she's finally sober, she's attempting to repair her relationship with Andrew. It is heartbreaking to watch and it has created some awkward moments for all of you. You wonder what will happen when Andrew goes away to college next year. Your husband's big fear is that he may have inherited his mother's alcoholic genes. You reassure him that Andrew is going to be fine, but you also secretly worry about him, too. In addition to worrying about your kids, you clip coupons, you get monthly pedicures, and you read a lot of mysteries. You also love to watch British mystery series and you have found yourself mildly obsessed with the upcoming royal birth. Rather than spending money on a cruise, you would really love to take the whole family to London. [/quote]
