My siblings my joy, I'm from a family made up of five children, in which I'm the fourth born, I have two elder brothers, one elder sister and one younger sister. Funny enough I was the last born sometime ago but suddenly my parent just decided they need to reproduce another child lols, I was already enjoying being the last born, I tell you It's a good experience, I have virtually everything I ask for, as I was dad's favorite, not until I saw my mum with another pregnancy.
Boom! everything changed overnight lols. what did you expect? the love and attention was shifted to the last born again, and I don't have a choice than to let go of my last born privileges, anyways I enjoyed my tenure.
I took nothing less than 10 years from my younger sister, so you can know I wasn't a kid then, I can still remember most of things that happened.

My childhood memory too was fun coupled with both the good and bad days, at a time we use to eat inside the same bowl, the four of us before we had the original last born.
It use to be fun, we will fight over someone eating too fast, or one trying to take a larger share of the meat and so on. But now we're all grown and there's nothing like that anymore, anyways the love keep increasing.
There was a time I had a fight with my elder sister, physical fight not exchanging words but blows, she beat me blue black that day, I can't forget and can't explain all what my eyes went through, a very bad day. That lady should just go and register for Taekwondo training (martial arts) already.
That same sister is now my personal person amongst my other siblings, we're very close now, I tagged her my gist partner.
I love and cherish our number, I don't wish I have less siblings, because I love them all. Though there are times that I pity my dad, it got to a point that it seems the load was getting too much on him, fathers are really trying and should be celebrated just as we celebrate our mothers too, that story is for another day though...
The load was too much on him, when it got to a time that three of us were in higher institution, and you know it's not easy to cater for a child in school not to take of three, it wasn't an easy thing at all. But thank God he was able to put us all through school. On this note I just want to advice that people should only give birth to children they will be able to cater for, that they will be able to take care of properly. I know if we're just two or three maybe we would have received a better treatment.
Despite that we're five in number and it seems we're many somehow, I still like us like that, our number is perfect.
We've grown to be pillar of support for one another, that's the best part, we come through for one another, helping ourselves through many difficult moments. Above all, family over everything.
Thanks for reading.
