Yaay for you choosing the 'only' route.
being an only myself, if ever I have children, I will make the same choice.
Some of the potential downfalls you've mentioned can be true, to a certain extent.
can. but not necessarily so.
(in my case at least, I think a large part of it can be attributed to having a single working mom, not so much just as an only child).
From what I've seen, you and Dei are great parents, and that you can focus your
all on your daughter I think is really a bonus for her.
regarding the companionship - really, she will (have to) make her own friends. that simple, and I realised that even as a child, and didn't mind it one bit.
another plus - she may very well learn to be more independent than the 'average' woman in today's world, which I think, makes her a great addition to the future.
hope this helps a bit
