Looking back, what were your 5 highlights in life?

1. The birth of my first child -born three years after a specialist told us we would be highly unlikely to be able to have children. (just to say 2nd was born a year later, third mtwo years after that and then twins two and half years further on = five in just over five years!!

2, Graduations of each of those children

3. Birth of my eldest g.daughter - (her mum had had an eptopic pregnancy couple of years earlier). She was also first child in family born after tragic death of my youngest (adopted) son, and used the female version of his name.
