    I love them! It was alot of work but I just love those kids! I really did sit around too much this cold and snowy winter, so was out of shape but I kept moving and now I feel lots better.
    I called my Mom and thanked her for every diaper she changed, every dish she washed every nose wiped and so on! She said...you were really good kids and it wasn't so bad. (there were 10 of us!) I felt good when she said that! The best reward is when a little hand holds on to yours and trusts that you will take care of them.
    The kids were 2,3,5,8,11 and 14!
