• I raised five kids and love each differently — I don't have a favorite.
• My youngest and I became especially close as the others moved out.
• He's 28 and married, but I still keep him on my phone plan.

I can honestly state that I have no favorite child.

I wouldn't say I love all five of them equally, because I don't think that's possible. I love each one for who they are.
