Nothing beats a big family.
We had fun that singletons can't conceive of.
Massive Monopoly games that went on for hours , playing cards, building forts,playing ball,going fishing, camping and picnics.
Fixing Sunday dinner was a massive family affair.
Mom's fried chicken was to die for.
Of all the gifts my parents have given us, including college education for us all, by far the one we all most appreciate is their gift of siblings, and lots of them.
One of nine myself. Mom had six of us before she was thirty and the last was nearly born in the back seat of my Pontiac Catalina as we rushed to the hospital....that was some hairy ride...
