[quote=Anonymous]I lost my dad at age 4. I don't really remember him, but did always wonder what it would have been like to grow up with a dad. I do have an older brother. Would sports have been on more? Would I care more about watching them? Silly question to wonder about I guess.

I lost my mom at age 27. Years later now that I have kids, I wish I could have had someone to talk to about watching my kids develop, etc.

At this point the biggest issue for me is that I have in laws who visit frequently, and who we visit, and who the kids are close to. On my side of the family, I just have my siblings and they are all busy with their own lives. It's more awkward to travel and stay with them for holidays. We do, but not as frequently, they don't travel to see us much at all, and are also farther away.

Basically feel like my life is dominated by my in laws, who are great and supportive, but there's also nothing like the "at home" family of being with people you grew up with and knew you when. [/quote]
