Siblings

Where do you fit in the rank of your family? Are you the oldest? The youngest? Or the middle child/children? I started out as the oldest, and then got deranked for a year or so, to the Middle child…  My folks had a foster child.. it was a friend of mine for years…who wasn’t getting along with her foster parents she had. So because she and my mother had a great repour due to horses and she was my friend… Mom decided they would become foster parents. She was 18 months older than I… so I became the middle child. Somehow being the oldest and being the middle child …kind of blended in to each other. See as the middle child…. I got the blame for what ever went wrong. Or whatever happen/ From A Simple Mind .
