As a mother of six I have been through the various stages of childhood a few times (at least to the age of 9) I often catch myself saying "Oh I just love this stage (age)." Then I recall that I say that for just about all the various stages my kids have been through. They are each so unique in so many ways and yet there are so many
similarities. I guess what it just boils down to is I love my kids all six of them for what makes them different and what makes them alike as siblings.
