I said if you look at it that way, we can't really afford the two we have. LOL.<br />But seriously, I could not afford not to have that third child and have never regretted it for a moment....and for the record my husband has actually thanked me for convincing him to have the third as well.<br />In my books it's not about the "things" you can give them (although my 2 teenagers might beg to differ). it's all about the love you have to give them. We only have 3 children, but people still thought we were nuts.
