(110,159 posts)all of us in oct. too close in age.
for my mom, too.
lots of sibling fighting and especially between brothers.
i never wanted to get married for a number of reasons and being the peacemaker in family i always said ONE child cause i hate fighting, lol (surprise). and no boys, thanks to brothers. oh, and middle brother name is jason, so NO jason. always in trouble, causing problems. really, forever i said this.
so, 32 i got married. had two kids, not one. boys, no girls. and a couple years later it dawned on me. hubby named son jonas. the second son. same as jason as a brother. all the letters the same.
isnt that a hoot
it is a joke in our family cause everything i asked for, i got the opposite and it is perfect.
my kids dont fight at all now. only a little younger, when oldest trying to boss youngest. they are so easy.
so i hear ya.
