HOLY CANNOLI ARE YOU OKAY?!

I can't imagine having that many siblings! Never a dull moment though I suppose

I am an only child. Not entirely sure what the stereotype is for that though? If anything it made me a bit of a loner and independent

It's definitely complicated. I'm the oldest bio-child with multiple fosters-cum-siblings (inc. 2 older) and many steps - all younger, but not by much. We don't bother explaining details, we're just all siblings. We're a big, boisterous, noisy bunch ... and I love 'em ALL!
