Our family grew slowly, over a few years. Bonny and Harry were just 2 years apart, but then it was 5 years waiting for Phoebe, and then 6 years waiting for Eliza. Hannah and Noah sort of zoomed in there at the end.
The spacing has meant changing relationships over the years. When you are 17 and you have a baby brother, it's a different relationship than you have with your closer sibs.
Wonderfully, though, the relationships have all coalesced into a great family dynamic - adult children who love, respect, and enjoy one another.
Couldn't ask for a better blessing than that!
