Three is enough?

When ever we sees a new baby, my hubby will try to hint to me on No 3. To him, 3 is good number.  He is of 3 siblings, and so am I.  So, he think that we should have 3 children as well. 

Well, I think 2 is just fine.  Not too many and not too few.  Maybe few years down the road I would miss having young children running to me and cling to me, but I have been explaining to him that it is not the matter of we can have children now or later, but the financial supports and responsibilities that come with having children.  I have few friends with fertility problem and cannot have children.  But it is not a reason for us to have more.  Some friends have three boys and they are pretty handful with them.  But I do not envy them.  I am already occupied with my own kids and other matters at hand. 

What ever it is, I don't think it is the right time for No 3.  Or maybe I never have.  Really.   But I leave it to God's will.

  7. It is not the number but the quality of life that the parents can provide for their children - and that does not mean money, education (which many parents equate to passing exams and getting a university degree) and material things but the love and devotion they can give to them, the sacrifices they are willing to make for them, the happy times and the beautiful memories they share together.
