Single parents of only children

Reading Rachel Sarah’s post today reminded me of the horrible time I went through last year when I realised the chances of me having a second biological child are probably zero.  It seems such a shame that my lovely caring daughter won’t get the chance to be a big sister.

I was the youngest of four, with one child disabled, and I learnt so much from the sharing and the fighting.

I make sure she spends a lot of time with her cousins, and they do have a lovely relationship, but, it’s not the same, is it?
