In time, through your experiences with child number 1 & 2, by the time third child comes into the picture, you've covered all your bases, you know what to expect when things happen and you're more relaxed with how you deal with them. <BR/><BR/>It made me laugh how being at home with third child is such a pleasure when first and second child are away...LOL, I'm sure it is!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4039408090092470813.post-35413246362694232292008-08-05T04:22:00.000-07:002008-08-05T04:22:00.000-07:00Fascinating.

Both my Mother and Father came from families of 10 each, and I have often wondered how they managed to deal with all of the parental issues. Neither my sister (51) nor I (57) have children, and thus the experiences you described are from another world. That's the great advantage than humans have over other animals. We can share experiences with one another through many means, the written word being one.
