Someone asked me this a week or so ago. It has stayed on my mind ever since as I interact with my family. So, I thought I would pass it on:
If you made a list of the most important people in the world to you....who is THIRD on your list?
Sounds easy because we all have a number 1. But how do you tell one of your kids they are third?  But someone HAS to be since most of us love more than two people. |

I know. It's really a complicated thought for such a simple question.

This assumes two people can't be equal. Why does someone have to be higher or lower on the list? |

I guess they could be....but the question is proposed as sort of a philosophical ' you have to make a list' kind of question.
I suppose who would be fifth would be the same question and thought, but having to pick the third sounds like a movie plot. I shrugged it off until I kept thinking about it. Now, it is bugging me because I don't know. I don't want a third....I want them all to be number one....but if something happened and I had to choose...it would be hard. |

Son 1st
Oldest sister 2nd
Next oldest sister 3rd
My two younger brothers and brother-in-law didn't make the list. 
My parents are no longer with us and my ex would be last or something.  |

My 2 grandchildren get equal footing on first place.
My 2 children are next.
After that, can't say who would be 3rd but I have some relatives that don't make the list at all.
