My first three children were born within a period of 25 months. None of them are twins. There is a nine-and-a-half-month age gap between my oldest sons. My first daughter was born 11 months after my second son. Three years later, I had my fourth child, my youngest daughter. My daughter was the last child born in my first marriage. Then, three years later, my third son was born, and three years after that, my sixth child and fourth son arrived. These two younger children were the product of my second marriage.
