Please Mom, I want a brother



We were driving in the car the other day. Just my 2 daughters and 1 son and myself. I was busy breaking their little hearts and crushing their hopes and dreams. I was explaining in simple terms that we will not be having any more babies at our house. Trevor and Elise are somewhat miffed that they will never be able to be a "big" brother or sister. I think because people around us are having babies every which way we turn they think maybe that good fortune will fall upon us too!

Trevor after thinking a while told me that we could adopt a kid...specifically a boy to even things up around our house. I told him that we probably would not be doing that either. Did he really want to share his Mom with another kid? Well that is a dumb question to ask a twin that has been sharing his whole life! Trevor and Elise have no problem sharing! Bring it on Mom, the more the merrier! He is also good at compromising. He told me we could adopt a 16 year old because then we would only have to take care of him for 2 years...

Yeah, I'll get back to ya on that one Trev...
