Both my husband & my ex-husband grew up w/a wide age range in siblings. There are 4 boys in my husband's family. Pat is the youngest, then comes Rick who is 7 years older then Pat, Bobby is 6 years older then Rick & Jeff is the oldest & he's 2 years older then Bobby. In Rick's family (my ex) there's 6 kids. There's 2 years between the first 5 & it goes boy, girl, boy, girl, boy & then there's 6 years & it's another boy (he sure got teased about that one
). My brother & I are only 2 years apart in age (well, "technically" it's 1 year, 9 months & 1 days & it wasn't planned since we're both adopted). Kathy
