I love the analogy of the heater and air conditioner. <br /><br />I feel the same way about my just-perfect-for-me daughters. I love different things with each of them. Even simple things like time of day. Coffee is in the morning is more fun with one; coffee in the afternoon is more fun with the other. Of course, I actually DO have a favorite...<br /><br />(Just kidding. Since they both inherited the snoop gene from their mother and read here, I wanted to mess with their heads.)Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05671482394424988047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3964127382381586570.post-25746073237961316722010-07-26T13:48:02.455-04:002010-07-26T13:48:02.455-04:00I love what you decided to write here. I have been...I love what you decided to write here. I have been dealing with a lot of this with our kids. I have a one year old (Austin) and a 6 year old( Chandler). I try my hardest to make everything fair and show them both love as much as possible. But what my 6 year old doesnt understand is that I HAVE to do things for the baby that I may not have to do for him. So I feel in his eyes he sees it as that I am showing more love to the baby...its hard and It breaks my heart because I know that I am trying my best. So usually when he mentions something I just tell him I love him so much and he is very special to me. I also do "special" days. Where I take Chandler(6yr) and me and just spend time together and do the things that he wants too. That usually helps :) Love this post! I could go on and on....MommyLevanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07592298696928221186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3964127382381586570.post-484968044001834462010-07-26T12:58:03.167-04:002010-07-26T12:58:03.167-04:00I love this!!

You had the exact same feelings I did when I was waiting to give birth to my second child.....how could I possibly love the second as much as I love the first?? And the minute she was born (my first is a boy, also!) I just KNEW. Hokey, crazy, but I knew that I loved her and it was instant.<br /><br />Mine are as different as night and day (I only have the two, but they are almost 11 and 16 now) and I can say after years of raising them that loving them equally doesn't always mean that things are the same for them. Does that make sense? I may have to treat them differently due to their station in life or their personality, but I couldn't love them any more!Sherrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13980063502482258767noreply@blogger.com
