Why More?

It is funny to me that everywhere I go...with my toddler in tow, people ask the question "So when are you going to have another?" Seriously people cant you see I have my hands full enough? lol Of course I always say the same thing that I have been saying for the past 2 years "I'm not planing on having any more kids." and then here it comes "Every child needs a sibling to share their life with!" or "You cant have just one they will be spoiled!" I have come across something quite amusing in the last two years, if you ask the person how their relationship with their sibling has tuned out you hear a lot of "O we don't get along that well anymore." or "They live so far away we hardly ever see each other." I have to admit I have great siblings that I couldn't imagine life without, but I am not sure how my mother made it threw our childhood. The thought of packing 3 kids everywhere I went makes me want to cry! I can barley pull it together to get me and one other ready and out the door. I have talked to adult "only children" and have yet to meet one that felt lonely or spoiled. Some of the most obedient and well behaved kids that I have been around are only children. Whats right for me isn't right for the universe. Just because common law (especially in Utah) states that you have to have at least 2 kids, that just doesn't sound like my cup of tea! I feel content and satisfied with my life and and my choice for only one and I feel its right for me.Perfection was achieved the first try!
