... not looking forward to the teen years, but as that's 6 years away for the first one, I've got 6 years of finding out how to stop getting things wrong

Don't worrry about it, you'll find out later...

True! Having Ben 10min away, our son living at home with us and Rudy 45min away, we're not too far apart, eh?

I always thought my daughter's purpose in life was to establish a black hole in my bank account...

Give us a holla when they're legal.

I think you'll find that's when he buys the shotgun and hides the baseball bat behind the door...

Only if the price is right.

Depends whether you intend using them as bait or just using them. K'Rd is still a site for that. I got mine the old fashioned way and spent twenty years or so raising them.

Though I did have to take a man's daughter from him to do that. He wasn't that pleased at the time but I think he got used to me eventually...
