Quite a load in todays economy for almost anyone. Best of luck and congratulations. Actually in recent times you have the largest family I have heard of recently. Ages of the children?

Reminds me of the old pitch some females used of two being able to live as cheaply as one. Actually there was a grain of truth in that. Slight change with twelve though.

Our needs continue to be met, and that's a real blessing. The more we have, the more we enjoy the family...it's rather interesting how it's working out.
