[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I always wanted 4 kids. Due to age, finances, and work status we stopped at 2. I had pangs for a third until my youngest was about 2,and then the feeling was replaced by excitement over the new, non-baby phase of our family life. I no longer have that primal, biological urge for another baby that I assumed I'd always have in one form or another. Imagining myself with 4 kids is like imagining an alternate universe, and I'm happy where I am.[/quote] That’s exactly it. As the youngest is about to age out of naps in a year, I can’t wait to do more fun road trips or all day outings on the weekend. Even weekend trips will be much easier, not to mention overseas travels. I really look forward to that. I guess I just wonder how I’ll feel when they are in their 20s or 30s, will I wish we had just gone for it so we could have that larger extended family feeling. But maybe I’m not the type to stay at home cooking for a crowd.[/quote]
