i think i did pretty well with my daughters, they're 17 and 13 now. the 17-year-old is a sensitive kid who listens to people, but she's really hard on herself. the 13-year-old is a goofy teen fangirl... who loves books! =D

honestly, i don't remember all that much when i was growing up. my mom did the stay-at-home thing, my two younger brothers didn't really bug me allll that much... well, the younger one did, but my parents were quick to blame the ADD. he was a bit of a rambunctious kid, but very smart. i think he's mellowed a bit. heh. that younger brother has been married now for 7 years, the brother in the middle has been married for 10 or 11 years, and they have a 4 year old (i'm an aunt! wee!)

one thing the middle brother said after he'd been at college for a little bit, was that we'd always said our family was weird... but after meeting the people he did and hearing about their families - ours was quite, well, normal.
