Well I did leave out 1 son at home (age 12) and one son who will be 18 in March plus my significant other, Dan.

When in March is his birthday? My youngest will be 18 on the 16th. Was a special date for me to have him, since it was my Mom's birthday too. To make it more interesting, her oldest grandchild and the youngest were both born on her birthday.

Ahh mine is the 13th and his is the 23rd. I just knew he would be early and on my 20th birthday lol. We always celebrate our birthday together and go to a concert or something like that. The last few years we have all gone to dinner together, me, Loren, Legend and Loren's dad plus whomever his dad was with at the time. lol Kinda weird I guess looking in from the outside but we have always been great friends. Just got married way too young.

Dont feel stupid! You should have seen Kelly's (cvalda) list just a few short months ago! She has literally exploded in torts in a very short time, many of us are envious of her collection for sure.

ROFL! So true, Anja! I started with three petshop buys (three Russians) and didn't have a clue... this was early August. Actually at the time, I only had 6 kids, one dog and four cats. Then I got the three torts. Since then I've added three kids (he he he, that sounds kinda funny), one dog (belongs to my 12-yr old), a lizard (belongs to my 11-year old), five hermit crabs (which is because my 10-yr old got two and them we needed some more for "company") and... how many torts - really really it's not so bad!!! Only 8 of the torts are mine! The other 7 belong to my kids! ROFL!

What this is meant to say is... WE ALL START SOMEWHERE!!! AND we all have to draw the line somewhere!!!
