Meagan’s a youngest, Sarah’s a firstborn, and between us we have eight kids (not to mention a bunch of grown siblings ourselves). In Episode 197 we share insights into sibling relationships from little to grown, what it’s like raising a kid whose personality is similar to yours, and how our families of origin continue to influence our parenting styles–PLUS some fun and little-known facts about us and our kids that we haven’t shared before!

I recently discovered your podcast and I am loving it! Loved the part of this episode where you talked about name pronunciations. My daughter’s name is Kerry, and it was fun to hear the different ways people say it. We are from the Philadelphia area, and we say it the way you pronounced the “Boston area” one. I will say I’ve heard an additional version…pronounced like “curry,” which I am not a fan of!
