Ode to the Youngest


When I told Mackay he could watch Elmo's World while I showered, he made him self comfortable. What a charmed life he leads.
How different from his siblings. How different each child's experience is. Birth order books just scratch the surface of our unique lives. Do you think Adam and Eve ever feel jipped because we have machines to do our work for us?
"Mom, it's not fair that Peggy gets treats in her lunch. We NEVER did!" I remember saying. It all evens out though, doesn't it Peg. You didn't get to share cloths with anyone (even if it meant you had to buy your sister a new pair of jeans when you ruined hers on a date)!

Yep, that's my room. For our 14th year anniversary we bought a new bed frame and bed spread to match. We feel like grown ups now!

LOVE your room! Yes...birth order matters...everyone is raised differently for a hundred different reasons. What is funny is the PARENTS have such different kinds of lives along the way as well!
