It happens not by the numbers of people in our family but by the size of the hearts that live here

Whether it is Anna teaching Mya to knit or

the older boys, Luke and Isaiah playing with cars with Jesse and Judah....


Or posing for a picture with your younger siblings...


Or sharing momma's lap ...it does not matter here. They just love being together. We have very little sibling rivalry or jealousy. Yes, we are a huge, mega family but there always seems to be enough time or laps for everyone. People from the outside might wonder and, I even had a precious friend email me about her sw " thinking how can you give children the attention when there are 5 or more little ones ?" I say bah humbug to that sw and I invite her to stop by our home anytime....it happens not by the numbers but because of the size of the hearts that live here.

Very well said. We only have 10 kids thus far and same thing happens to us especially w/ relatives saying all sorts of thing. We just tell them love multiples, not subtracts.
