Sorry to take so long to get back to you, my keyboard decided to quit on me yesterday :( I'm spamming this to everyone that responded to me.

Cheaper by the Dozen, ( Read the books also :) ) to me has the message of a strong ( & in this case a Large) family , gives you the anchor in life that makes a comfort zone needed to let you be creative & inventive juices flow.

The Gilbreaths(sp?), for those who may not know, had 12 Kids & ran the 1st Husband & wife team of Industrial effiency experts in the early parts of the 20th.

Looks like your keyboard came back to you like a vengeance. You posted the same thing 4 times.
