Recently, I have been getting a lot of looks when I am out with all FIVE of our kids. I have always wanted to say something to those who think we are crazy for having so many kids - family members, friends and strangers alike - so here it goes: I have watched a few people die in the last few years. Something they all had in common is this: it didn't matter what job they had, car they drove or house they had, or how much money they had, they all had the same in the end - their family members around their bed side telling them they love them!
Even though these beloved people are gone, they will never be forgotten because their loved ones will share the story of their lives with generations to come.
So, the next time you see a parent or a couple out with a bunch of kids and you think they are crazy, maybe you should think again! There are many days that are challenging but we wouldn't trade our kids for all the stuff in the world.
