Charles:

At times doing three milestones at the same time is good, but at others it can be financially, emotionally, and physically draining. Though, I think I can make it. "Aunt flo" scares me. (A little)

I have 3 daughters all born in 2004. They just reached their 5 year old milestone. This fall they will be starting school. With school, they will be meeting new people and developing their social skills. Constantly, I think about the days when they become "women", pre-teens, teenagers, start dating boys and then on to college and marriage. It is scary territory. I tend to joke quite frequently that when my girls go through their change into womanhood, I will have to buy stock in femine products and start buying those products at wholesale clubs."

I hear ya. At least you get to get through all the "milestones" at one time with them (not that that will be any easier). Mine are three years apart. I will have at least one in high school for a stretch of nine years, with a year in there where two of them will be in high school at the same time. The fights, the boys, the ulcers! There will come a time when I will be moving out of the house for at least one week every month while their "Aunt Flo" is visiting. Yeaaaah!!! Oh and I'm digging an outhouse in the backyard. I've already giving up on the whole bathroom thing.

I have a son and a daughter. And it turned out that it is more difficult to deal with my son. Danny is very active. You know, everything is not so complicated as I thought it might be at first. I just read a lot of books, watch videos. Usually I find everything at the torrents files search engine http://www.picktorrent.com . I've already learned to cook and guess children's needs perfectly.

This is murky water. I have three of these little creatures (6yrs, 2yrs & 3wks) and each one has her own set of parameters that you have to work within. Its funny how soon a little girl develops a distinctive personality....
