Patrick didn't have many thoughts about having children. If he and Aimee only had one child, he might consider having another one so that the two children could grow up together without feeling lonely.
Patrick himself had three siblings, and although they sometimes fought, they were still very happy because they supported each other.
However, since Patrick and Aimee had twins as their firstborns, the two children already had each other to keep them company. Therefore, Patrick was not very interested in having a second or third child.
But now Aimee frequently brought up the topic of having more children which made Patrick wonder if she really wanted to have more kids. He asked her directly instead of guessing her thoughts.
Aimee paused from what she was doing and honestly said, "I don't really want to have more kids. I grew up in the Read family with sisters but it didn't make much difference to me personally. Mikayla is nice to me but that's because she's a good person. If she didn't like me, then it wouldn't matter whether I had sisters or not."
She continued by saying that she didn't believe siblings necessarily brought happiness nor did their absence cause unhappiness. Besides Ridge and Rosemary who were already siblings with each other, there wasn't any need for them to force anything on their own children.
Patrick agreed with Aimee's perspective, "Let's just let things happen naturally. If we end up having another child then great; otherwise we won't force it."
Aimee admitted that part of her reason for bringing this topic up was just an excuse for her to come back home from work early.
Although Aimee promised Patrick that when they went on vacation next time around, she will reduce her workload by half, but deep down inside herself, she knew this promise will be hard for her keep, since once patients came under her care, there was no way out until everything was sresolved completely.
This wasn't fair towards Patrick who wanted nothing else than spending time with his wife whom he loved dearly without being put aside due to work commitments all the time.
So after they thought about it some more, one solution came into mind – getting pregnant would help take away some of Aimee's focus from surgery tables so that both can spend quality time together as a family unit instead!
