Just a thought, but I have been wondering how many of us going are actually first borns.
I am and I do seem to be the organiser, problem solver etc of the family. Curious to know if their is a link there.

I'm the youngest in my family.
My OH is the oldest.
Yet it's me doing all the organising for Oz
What's the point in marrying a first born if you have to organise everything yourself?

I'm a first born, and was the organiser for our first time move to Oz and back again! LOL
However, from now on am leaving it to OH, if we ever decide to return to Oz in the future. However, as daughter has now decided to go back, I am trying to help her get organised, otherwise goodness knows where they would end up! She's an only child!

I'm the first and only. My Oh is the second child. I am the mover and shaker, chief organiser and force of nature.

Yes I am the eldest of 4!
I am the organiser, do-er, the most motivated, dynamic and adaptable one in my family. I see the results are 60+% for us eldest siblings. It does seem strange......!!

Oldest child and am the organiser - not just for the move to Oz but everything else as well. Husband is excellent at the cooking and cleaning stuff though - which is great
