[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 471056, member: 1514"] At different times my answer to this question would have been different kids. When the kids were toddlers, Billy was my favorite because you could tell him to go play quietly and he would do it while I chased his brothers all over heck and back. When Jamie got into elementary school and started playing sports, Jamie really became my favorite because he was just so darned cute and so good at sports. Then when the kids hit the teen years, Jamie just dropped me for his father and Cory loved going shopping with me so we became best buddies. This is not to say that I didnt love them all. I have never felt that close to Billy because my mom basically took him from me as often as she could and he lived with her from 7th grade till 12 th. Bad decision on our part but I didnt know I could force the schools to put him in a different school in our district. She even taught him to call me Janet instead of Mommy or Mom because that is what she called me. Now that they are older, with Jamie in VA, he is much less attached to me even though when he first left for the military he became very close again. Now he is closer again to his dad. Im just mom. Cory is my baby. Also will be. Billy is different but he tries in different ways to show his affection and we are much closer now. [/QUOTE]
