Yes, sort of, and completely accidently. I have 2 A names and 2 K names. Both the K names have R middle names. It was completely unintentional and if each of them had been born the opposite gender none of them would have matched at all.

My ds started kindergarten this year. We don't have the option of full day kindy but if we did, he wouldn't be the kid that I'd send full day. He's sensitive and emotional and needs his "down time". I think, for him, full...

My first baby was 9lbs, 13oz. I was 15 years old when I gave birth to her, eating mostly vegetarian, and had a short, drug free labor. I was only 120lbs or so at the time of her birth. I was certainly not diabetic and was/am very...

I just finished watching the EBF segment. I didn't think it was done too poorly. I expected much worse to be honest. I did feel my face scrunch up in confusion when the lady with the twins was mentioned. Having tadem nursed my 2...

My step father never wanted children of his own. He didn't particularly care for children. He and my mom have been together for 20 years now and I am closer to him than I am my biological father. I was 12 when he and my mother started...

I made each of my kids wait until they were 13 before sitting in the front seat. My 16 year old is 5'11" tall and 150lbs now. She wasn't much smaller at 13. My 13 year old is 5'6" tall and weighs 105lbs, which is more than I...
