[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wanted 2, husband wanted 3, ended up with 4... [/quote] Lord, nobody actually reads the question, do they? I will. I have one and would've liked two. DH did not want two, and I decided that it wasn't fair to him or to any potential child to try and coax him into it. Now I honestly don't know how we would've afforded two -- we would surely have had to make some quality-of-life-reducing choices -- and I've really enjoyed our life. Who knows how it would have been? All I know is that there are opportunities and advantages to having one, and if you [i]can't[/i] have more than one (for whatever reason) then the sanest thing to do is to really embrace the advantages that one gives you! But yes, time has given me peace with and appreciation for the beauty in the smaller-scale family. You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes etc. Good luck, OP. You'll find your path. [/quote]
