You probably just need more kids to help Ella get more firsts and balance it all out. :)<br /><br />Although, you're now outnumbered with kids to parents, the times I got one on one with my parents are still some of the best memories of my childhood. Whether it was going on a "business" trip with my Dad, when we ended up camping and driving together over 500 miles for some purpose I was never quite sure of or my mom taking me into the MTC and spending a few days around SLC together before I reported.Bradhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17137450481629002850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3255703574978607217.post-509031707878724622009-08-24T10:20:21.575-07:002009-08-24T10:20:21.575-07:00Ella will get to do all the "oldest daughter&...Ella will get to do all the "oldest daughter" things first and Olivia will be wanting to be just like her. <br />Middle child stuff always makes me think of a story I read in school when I was in about 1st grade called, "The One in the Middle is the Green Kangaroo."

Us youngest children are usually pretty passive, as I suspect Olivia will be based on her mellow personality so far. She will most likely idolize Ella and let her steal the show!Megan McCrindlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00202951628440240780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3255703574978607217.post-26195016604547331532009-08-24T07:55:43.868-07:002009-08-24T07:55:43.868-07:00I am a middle child as well, and I read this artic...I am a middle child as well, and I read this article and it helped me understand a lot about the issues some of us middle children struggle with. http://www.lifescript.com/Life/Family/Parenting/Middle-Child_Syndrome_Am_I_Your_Favorite_Mom.aspx?trans=1&du=1&gclid=CI_OwMafoZgCFQ6jagod40i4mQ&ef_id=1350:3:c_dd3497fb92b467c6808df4788af85f0a_2540867585:@NScFUo-KSIAAHvnS94AAAAP:20090122033604 . <br /><br />No matter what I know Ella will feel loved by her family!Whitneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05606829055171287959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3255703574978607217.post-86627837128152152512009-08-23T14:50:35.505-07:002009-08-23T14:50:35.505-07:00I have a special place in my heart for middle chil...I have a special place in my heart for middle children!!!
