[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was raised by a single mother without extended family. She gave me a good childhood in many ways, but we were very different people with different needs, priorities, and values. (Credit to her for loving AND liking me despite having very little in common with me!) Anyway, I grew up really wanting a larger, more secure family. Nothing's guaranteed, but I wanted a spouse, multiple siblings, and place to come home to - physically and emotionally. That was part of it. Biology, the way a toddler snuggles up to you at bedtime, and the cocky idea that I could do a good job of it also played their own parts. We have two kids under 4 now and I love them to bits, even when they make me want to pull my hair out. DH wants a third, but I'm feeling a bit 'touched out' to sign up for it right now.[/quote] *multiple children so THEY'd have siblings.[/quote]
