OK, so I had this big plan to share some really meaningful information with you, and then I see that there is a couple with seventeen children.  On most days, I am trying to figure out how to survive with my family that including me, only tops off in the single digits.  Can you imagine their holiday newsletter, if they even bother with it?  If they don’t, it is not a huge loss, because those newsletters are getting out of hand, at least with my relatives. 

During this time of year, I usually grumble a bit, because my holiday card list is much larger than most because my aunt had nine kids, and then her kids multiplied several times over.  We are well into the double digits, and that gets tiring after awhile.  It is amazing to me to think what the list will look like for these siblings when they get older.  The next time I think I feel worn out, I’ll just pull up this article, and remind myself of all the energy I have that I’m not taking advantage of.
