We have five, three boys & two girls. My husband and I had our first son five years after we got married. We said we would have one, and adopt after that so we would have one of each. A year and a week later our second son was born. That was it for me. I was cooked! Then in 1998 three childern from the school I worked at lost their family, one boy two girls. We couldn't see them ending up in the system, so we adopted them. We are now one big happy family.
