My sister is 10 years younger than me and we're close. We actually have a lot in common including our love of chihuahuas. I'm thankful that my parents had her... I couldn't imagine not having a little sister
Anyway, I didn't think I wanted children for most of my life. I never liked dolls or babies when I was a kid. When I was in high school and early college I had no interest in ever having my own kids.
When I hit 21/22 years old the idea of children became appealing. A lot of people say they don't want kids because it limits the things they can do... but we don't plan on letting that happen. We're still going to travel, and although some big trips (Peru, African safari, etc.) will have to be put on hold until the kids are older, we'll be able to see a lot of cool places! We're planning on homeschooling our children and I'm excited to work education into travel
Baby is due in July and I'm going to be a stay at home mom which I'm really looking forward to. It's something I've wanted to do for the past 7 years and it's a good time for us. We've been married for 5 years, have been on a bunch of amazing trips, and I'm really looking forward to this next leg of our adventure
