What do you think, one more kid or no? I'm a little wary of having a biological child at my age, so if we do have another child I think I'd like to adopt.DH: Paul Jeremiah (42)

I feel really blessed to have five wonderful and healthy kids and I'm pretty happy with that. We have our big family now and with the pets and kids it's a a pretty hectic life. But I like the thought of adopting a child and if we decide that we want another child I feel like adoption would be the right choice for us.

To tell the truth, I'm content with our family as it is too! Five loving, healthy, happy children is as much as a parent could ask for. So, why don't we go ahead and describe the kids? I'll take Ari and the twins and you can do Henry and Cara. Do you want to do personalities, looks, or both? In case you have forgotten, dearest Paul, I've got wavy brown hair and blue eyes and I'm on the tall side.

DD: Caroline IsadoraCara” (5)Our darling son Henry is a such a wonderful boy. He's very gentle and a bit shy but he really cares about people and animals. He's a good student and he's doing very well in school. He still have problems standing up for himself but I think it will get better. Henry has light brown hair and amazing big blue eyes, just like his mom. He's kind of gangly, just like his dad was at that age. Cara is a real wild child. She's completely fearless and wants to do everything her older siblings do. She's very smart but has a very short attention span. She loves riding Goldie, the Shetland pony, and she keeps asking us if she can gallop in the field even though we've told her so many times that she's too young. Cara seems to be quite an artistic child and she likes to sing and dance. Cara has long curly (where did that come from?) reddish brown hair, hazel eyes and freckles.

I can't believe Ari is a teenager already! Our little girl, thirteen? I sometimes miss the little girl who would follow us around the house, singing songs she made up for herself, always wanting to read to us or show off something new she learned, but I'm also so proud of the person she's becoming. She still loves to sing and has joined her middle school's chorus, which she loves. She's recently started writing too, and her stories and poems are very mature and insightful for a girl her age. She has reddish-brown hair like Cara and your eyes, and like Henry she's tall and a bit gangly for her age. I think she looks a lot her dad.
Lily and Thomas are as different as I think it's possible for siblings to be. Both have my brown hair, and Lily has my eyes while Thomas has yours. Lily I think looks the most like me, while except for his hair Thomas could be you at his age. Lily is outgoing and active, loves softball and dance and riding Goldie. She's usually at the head of whatever mischief she and her partner-in-crime Thomas are getting into. Thomas usually follows her willingly, but he's also sometimes the only one who can bring her back to reality when she starts getting too intense. Thomas is a lot like Henry, very calm and laid back, but he is not shy at all. He and Henry band together a lot against the girls when they start to feel pushed around. Thomas, like Henry, is very caring towards animals, and Henry generously allows him to help take care of Pirate. Thomas has recently started showing interest in my cameras and photography, and I'm thinking of getting him his own. He loves taking pictures, especially of people.
