I too came from a large family, and have so many wonderful memories. My mother's family was even larger, and what a grand time we all have when family reunion time comes around, tons of people, tons of food and lots of love. <br /><br />We have two daughters, by the grace of God. And these two have promised that if they marry, we will have tons of grandbabies, if the Lord wills that for them.Mrs.Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09733696095180815920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1984956841131982891.post-72140507912918264832010-09-28T21:55:55.096-05:002010-09-28T21:55:55.096-05:00great post! i to was an only child, and i always n...great post! i to was an only child, and i always new that i was going to have a large family. we have 3 children now, and because of medical complications, i am unable to give birth to any more myself. that aside, my husband an i are both open to adding to our family in other ways if and when the Lord guides us to it.Sarah Smithnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1984956841131982891.post-70481238932665403672010-09-28T17:05:51.278-05:002010-09-28T17:05:51.278-05:00I love the illustration you chose for this post. U...I love the illustration you chose for this post. Until recently we had a tree house just like that but it had become a bit too ramshackle and not wanting to be making any trips to hospital it had to come down. Since that time I have noticed various shelters and tee pee type structures made from branches and palm leaves appearing under trees in our forest. They have been constructed by my ten year old son and he is more than happy to allow his twin sisters to help build his 'fort'. They beg to differ and call it their house and race to fetch dolls and tea sets for impromptu camping trips. He doesn't mind as long as they are prepared to have the occasional sword fight! These are the dynamics of life in my large family - with seven children. Just watching them play together is a delight and that lovely artwork has captured it beautifully.Ann at eightacresofedenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15524581927752695509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1984956841131982891.post-67478140129590513142010-09-28T16:54:44.694-05:002010-09-28T16:54:44.694-05:00I love your post!

But I was wondering if you wouldn't mind taking a look at it? Possibly offer tips or advice? This is my very first blog, I've only written for myself in the past. I realize you are a very busy wife & mother, but any advice would be a wonderful blessing.

My dh and I have both been a bit overwhelmed with our large family simply because we didn't know what to expect. I laughed when I read the sock comment. That was reassuring. LOL!!!!
