Mark Wahlberg, wishes to, "Raise his kids right"

Actor Mark Wahlberg will have an even household as his wife Rhea Durham is expecting the couple’s fourth child, which will make two daughters and two sons for the couple.

Mark told PEOPLE that he is indeed expecting a little girl this time around. This will make 2 girls and 2 boys for the actor.

It also looks like Mark and Rhea will be stopping with this fourth child. He says, “I’m the youngest of nine, and my dad has a few others. No, four is enough. We were all raised with a lot of love. But we didn’t get the kind of attention I think that we all needed. My parents had to provide to put food on the table. My mission in life is to raise my kids right. With all the success I’ve had in the world, if I fail at that, my life means nothing.”

Although he would be happy with just 4 kids, he is leaving the number up to his wife Rhea.

“My wife is allowed to pick the magic number … as many as she wants to have,” he said. “What I want to do is I want to raise my kids right. I want to give them the world, but I also want them to appreciate it.”

Mark and Rhea are parents to Ella Rae, 6, Michael, 3 ½, and Brendan Joseph, 13 months. Rhea is due in December.
