How many siblings and where you fall
 
i liked Gracie'S question about are you male or female.

So I thought it would be interesting to ask:
How many siblings do you have and whether
Brothers or Sisters,
And where you fall in the lineup.

I have 3 Brothers, 1 older and 2 younger.

Just me, only me. I always wanted an OLDER brother or sister. Obviously that wasn't gonna happen.

mixsonci 09-21-2014 03:38 AM

2 brothers - 1 older, 1 younger - then 2 half sisters and 1 half brother (same mother) and 3 half brothers (same father) and 1 step brother - never one big happy family however.

Younger brother. If you would like one I will share:a040:

The rose between two thorns, the meat in the sandwich....I am the middle child. Older sister and younger brother.

bkcunningham1 09-21-2014 05:02 AM

There are four boys and four girls in my family. I am sixth out of eight. Three sisters and four brothers.

Pointer 09-21-2014 05:12 AM

oldest of my mom's six, one younger sister and four younger brothers (this explains a lot) and two older step sisters They were ten and eleven yrs. older then me so I was the oldest and then again not really. When you grow up in a large family you have lots of stories to share at gatherings. I realized the importance of this when my daughter said to me "but mom if I don't do anything wrong I won't have any stories to tell". I had to admit (to myself), she was right, but I just said "oh don't worry, just being part of this family will give you lots of stories to tell". Whew this raising kids thing makes you have to think on your feet, eh? ps she has her own stories now.

I'm from a family of 9 brothers and sisters. I have 5 sisters and 4 brothers. I'm the youngest.

2BNTV 09-21-2014 07:20 AM

Two bothers and a sister. I am the youngest.

Oldest brother and sister is deceased.

My remaining brother is two years older.

chalpm 09-21-2014 07:24 AM

I come from a family of nine children as well, I'm third oldest with LOTS of stories to tell.

DigitalGranny 09-21-2014 07:27 AM

Oldest of three. I have the best sister in the world (though I'm sure some others do as well!) and a much younger brother who I really got to know later in life ( he was 10'when I got married).

I have an older brother and 2 younger sisters. My sisters and I were forever known as "the girls".

redwitch 09-21-2014 08:34 AM

One older brother. With the age gap between us (9 years), it was pretty much like we were both only children, except he had to babysit me all the time. He died in a diving accident when he was 36.

tippyclubb 09-21-2014 10:36 AM

I was a only child and always wanted a brother or sister. It's a close bond that I have missed out on. It's like having a best friend but 10 times better. I do have a few close girlfriends who have adopted me as their sister and my friendship with them means everything to me.

Erijo 09-21-2014 10:59 AM

I am one of 5 girls. I am second in the line up.

villages07 09-21-2014 11:24 AM

Ruthtomnorma3 09-21-2014 11:46 AM

I am the OLDEST of three girls...
All 2 yeas apart, but for some reason our MOM dressed them as twins,same toys at Christmas and a few other interesting facts...
I was like a second MOM......just my station ....

Ruthtomnorma3 09-21-2014 12:03 PM

My husband ,Tom , from a family of 7....
He is the oldest..18 months later his precious twin sisters were born. They are like 3 peas in a pod...he just comes alive when they are around.....:) so sweet to watch...
Then his other siblings are a joy too...1 other brother and 3 sisters round it up.
His youngest sister was 4 when he went into the service/ARMY CAREER at 17 years old.

Aandjmassage 09-21-2014 12:04 PM

One younger sister

RickdeMasi 09-21-2014 05:35 PM

Middle child but I grew up as an only child...

Schaumburger 09-21-2014 06:53 PM

I am the oldest of three girls. I am closer to my youngest sister who is almost 5 years younger than me than I am to my sister who is almost 3 years younger than me. Maybe it's because my youngest sister and I never had to share a bedroom...

CFrance 09-21-2014 07:08 PM

My brother was an only child.

kittygilchrist 09-21-2014 07:12 PM

One older brother and I fell off the turnip truck.

Bill bogie 09-21-2014 09:26 PM

Middle child syndrome here ... 3 older sisters & 2 older brothers then me ... Three younger sisters & two brothers.

Sable99 09-21-2014 09:33 PM

Me, too! Girl, boy, girl, girl, boy, me(girl!), boy, boy. 22 years from first to last.

patfla06 09-22-2014 12:19 PM

Great replies.

How did our Parents handle so many kids?

My husband is number 5 out of 7, 4 brothers and 2 sisters.
He acts like the oldest (he is the "oldest" of the 2nd
part of sibs.)

And we have an ONLY (Son) who LOVES being an only.

And my sympathy to all of you who have lost a
Sibling!
