I just smile and tell them how blessed we are. Every day's a party I say!!<br />Side note: My husband's parents had 15 {two set of twins just like the Duggars. My parents had 8 -- loved kids so much they adopted 3 of those 8. When they had only 6 at the time....they owned a goat farm. One Pioneer Day Parade they loaded up 6 baby goats {kids} plus their own 6 kids. Put us all on the back of their pick up truck -- rigged to be a comfortable and decorated float with a huge sign on each side of truck that read "Cheaper by the Dozen". Wasn't years later I figured out why everyone was laughing and smiling and pointing all along the parade route. lolLynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17650386366226859611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3723327840869334395.post-84419759493507723842014-03-16T18:14:17.720-06:002014-03-16T18:14:17.720-06:00Great poem about your kids!
