I would quite like 2 or 3, I would definitely like both a boy and a girl.
Three, at this stage in my life, is probably more favorable, but who knows in 5 years time I may want none.

GARCIN: I "dreamt," you say. It was no dream. When I chose the hardest path, I made my choice deliberately. A man is what he wills himself to be.
INEZ: Prove it. Prove it was no dream. It's what one does, and nothing else, that shows the stuff one's made of.
GARCIN: I died too soon. I wasn't allowed time to - to do my deeds.
INEZ: One always dies too soon - or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are - your life, and nothing else.

I'd like 11 sons. Preferably within a few years of each other (so a couple of big litters would be good). Then I will have the makings of a new football/cricket team. Infact, maybe a few more just in case some don't survive the winter.
Possibly a few daughters, to marry for diplomatic purposes (possibly to the Almohads or to favour one of my generals)
Cowardice is to run from the fear;
Bravery is not to never feel the fear.
Bravery is to be terrified as hell;
But to hold the line anyway.
Can I be one of your generals? I have a good resume!Originally Posted by Al Khalifah

Maybe. I'd need to know that you were right for my daughter and that she'd be happy with you. With that in mind, what are your piety, command and dread? Oh and do you have any nasty vices I should be fearful of?

Rofl. I can recite that script verbatim (and Schrek) thanks to my 3 year old grandson. We shout out the good parts together; great fun. But as you say, I'm always happy to see him ride off, smiling, after a day with gramps in Mommy's car returning to Mommy's house.
And I think you guys are right: it must be hormonal. I remember not wanting any (at 18), going along with the idea (20's), really enjoying the Daddy gig (30's & 40's), and now getting used to the gramps role.
I still haven't taught li'l Jake yet how to "pull my finger"...I'm saving that for later.
Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.
