But then in smaller families this is the norm anyway. I'm one of three, but have two brothers, neither of whom I am particularly close to, and I do often really wish I had a sister - as it happens my two best friends are both one of three girls, and I see the support and friendship they get from them. It's another reason I'm glad my girls have got so many sisters (one full and two half each). And yes, I know some people don't get on with even their same sex siblings!

Guest guest Posted August 24, 2001 Report Share Posted August 24, 2001 Caroline did I say congratulations?? I hope so ) Lonnie Phoebe & Eloisa's mama & expecting a Christmas delivery... My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what you start. So far today, I have finished 2 bags of chips and a Chocolate cake. I feel better already.
