Wow, 7 children.... what a blessing! We tried for 8 years before our first, and then we now have a 7,5,3 and 2 year old with one due in early June. We are so blessed. We hope for as many as the Lord will bless us with. I think that our time fellowshipping with conservative mennonites and their 12-14 plus children per family really challenged our views on acceptable/normal family sizes. It's all relative.

I will pray that Our Lord will give you peace and direction in the way that you should go. I also pray that He will bless you with strength of mind and of body.

Thank you -it's "the mind" that gets to me the most.
I am by nature someone who likes a peaceful and orderly environment.
The noise and chaos that comes with having many children seems to be turning me into a nasty person.

congratulations on the new little one!
