If you find yourself expecting a six year age gap between your children, here are our experiences with the ages and how the two ages weave together.But if you find yourself with two kids about six years apart, I thought it would be helpful to go over some of the ways this has been both extra fun and challenging for us. Our kids are 8 and 2 at the time of writing this post, so I can only speak to the years we've passed. But it's been an awesome wild ride!
