You gotta wonder........

Eight little ones! I just can't imagine coming home with eight newborns, let alone carrying them for even 5 months, let alone birthing them, let along trying to physically recover from the birth. I hope that there's a "village" ready to step up and help with the family of the octuplets born earlier this week.

We are so blessed to have M & L with us, and admire greatly their parents! Adaptation to the routine a baby demands takes stamina, strength, patience, good humour, and lots of love...traits found in abundance with M & L's caregivers all. The reward is multiplied a hundred-fold every time we receive those loving looks, excited greetings, hugs and kisses, and the pure joy of watching them learn and explore and delight in every new thing.

A village? I'm sure the crazy woman who had the eight babies already has a book and TV show deal. Have you heard that she's single & already has six kids? She's nuts, and I think the doctor who allowed this to happen should have his license revoked.
