I think only pretty cold cynical people think babies are not a blessing. What are people living for?

People talk about getting "fixed" when what they are doing is getting broken.

I've a large family and have heard the litany of crude comments from complete strangers who have never spent a dime supporting me or my children yet they must express an opinion.

Now I'm older and bolder and when asked by inquisitors,

"have you figured out what's causing that?" (pregnancy) my reply is
"yes and I guess I'm better at it and more efficient than most other people"

I WISH I had 5. I was part of a large family and wanted a large one of my own. I just got started too late. You ARE lucky blessed.

I come from a family of eight children. I wouldn't have had it any other way.

You should tell them, "Because I haven't had any more yet..."

We had to stop at three ... but man, I'd sure like to have more. Of course, my wife would have to do all the work....
