I should never like to have a twin. Aye, I should never like to have brothers or sisters, mother father forgive me! But I am your oldest born and your only born and I should like to keep it that way.

But I find it utterly delightful, Tuor, that you have two here now that share your appearance. But they are as different as night and day! They have not your heart, nor your mind, nor your spirit.

It amuses me deeply! But worry not! I know your face, and will never kiss them instead of you.

	Relative to the population? Eru. I could not imagine! We wait ten years between children so by nature there are very few during any time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Gretel and I once visited a town were there were no less than 4 children per family. But in my time, there wasn't anything like the contraceptives I've heard people talking about. There was no way to prevent having a child. Unless there was something wrong that a woman couldn't conceive in the first place. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I should be very sad if I could not have a child.. There is more to life than children of course, and many elves do not bear them ever. But they are joyous! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm definitely finding that out. Even with all the crying, I wouldn't give her up for anything. And she's not even really mine. I can't even think of how attached I'd be to my own child. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	And no parent could possibly explain! I had trouble with my son when he was born. It was not easy and I did not know what I was doing, and I often felt as if I were the worst parent in the world. But I adored him, and my husband I have been through it together. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Mina is an amazing gift and though she's only been in my life a few days I'm very thankful for her. ~~I just wish my sister would stop being a butt~~ (Reply to this) (Parent)
