What a loaded question, LOL!

My husband and I legally adopted his sister in 1976. I just counted on my fingers and toes, and she will turn 41 this month. (that's a very long and painful story)

I gave birth to two children: Theresa is 19, James will be 17 this month.

And over the years, I have "acquired" more family members, LOL. I love these people just as much as I could love a child I gave birth to. I call them the "children of my heart."

Hmmm...we've also got four cats and two stupid dogs...


Peace,
~VOW

I have been blessed with three.

2 boys ages 13 and 10 and a girl who is 6.

I have to share this --My 13 year old wants to be a policeman or work for the FBI my 10 year old wants to be a rodeo clown and my 6 year old wants to be a doctor, teacher, singer and a mommy.


What a great thread...too bad we don't have pictures to share that would be fun!

EJO - you've got your hands full, eh?

I have physically delivered five children. One daughter is with the Lord. The others are Mandy 23, Suzy 19, Joey 15 and Donovan 5.

We are also foster parents ... we don't have any foster children right now, but we did have a six year old boy this summer.

lol...don't knock it..so did I at one time.  But I was guided in another direction.

Me,

blessed with a 13 year old daughter (going on 20) lol, a 9 year old boy athletically inclined and opposite in personalities with his older sister.  Amazing that two who grew up together under the same conditions are so different.  And last but not least, a very amusing terror of a 5 year old who closely resembles the tazmanian devil character in Bugs Bunny.  You know...leaving a trail of debris behind him and flying, tearing, tunneling a path where ever he choses...lol

LOL Jenna.. stuck with you... that's cute!

I have three:

George (Geordie) is 8
Kendra is 6, had one I miscarried at 12 weeks, then,
Cameron is 3.

I have a belly left over from having Cameron, and I'm constantly getting asked when the next one is due... ugh... what do you isay to that?? Hasn't shamed me into losing weight though, so I guess it's my own lousy fault.

Ugh, I know that feeling, JN. The same thing happened to me. It is so embarrassing, and I didn't know quite what to say. Thankfully, my dad was on the ball and just said "Oh no, she already had her baby. Our little one is at her grandparent's right now." I was just bright red.

We were blessed with 2 beautiful daughters:

Caira Lei, 9/1/99 (on the right in my profile pic) and Chloe Jasmine (on the left), 10/30/00.

On June 17th this year, God decided he needed Caira with him, and she went quickly, without suffering.

He left Chloe with us to further bless us. God willing, we will have more.
