As a child, I always adored babies, my twin sister was turned off by them. I always just KNEW I was going to have several children, DS would probably have been delighted with none or one.
So, I had two children (and felt very lucky to have had them at all), and currently have two grandchildren, while DS had four children and has *eighteen* grandchildren at last count (birth and step), and I doubt that's the last of them yet.
The only time I think life is fair is when I'm able to splurge on my DDs, DSsIL, and DGC at special events and holidays. DS, not so much....
