Dave and both had heard of this family years ago but watching their show on TLC created so many questions...
Are those kids really happy?
How much money does that guy make to provide for 20 people?
Why the dresses/long hair?
Are they fundamentalists?
We were genuinely interested. However, the more we watched, the more we started believing they are really happy. They love one another, are disciplined, serve others, etc.
By the end of the night we realized what our family must look like to such people.
Weird post I know. What is your take on this?

I've never heard of these people. Please tell me some of those kids are adopted! I can't imagine giving birth to that many children. No thanks!
I have seriously wondered the whole providing for the 20 kids thing...but then I think, hey, if you can do it, and the mom can, then wow...and I know there are a few sets of twins. Can't wait for Sadee's toothless pics!
I have watched the show and have seen specials on them. At first. I was really bothered by the whole thing but the more I watch them the more that I see that they are providing in every way for each of the children. I think that these 17 kids even probably get more love and attention then kids with 2 sibblings. I don't want to judge anyones situation because I know that I am not a perfect mother, but I feel like if you are providing and doing the very best you can, go for it.
Yeah, I am not sure what I think of the Duggers. I first off think of the talk that I had to teach about... So I am pretty serious about Mom's having at least ONE hobby and having time to themselves a bit so that they can fill their wells up and have enough to share..... I can't imagine that this woman is doing that. IS SHE?
Oh well.
Have you given up on me taking your photos? If so, it's okay.
I totally watch this show too! I agree that it's totally impressive how together they all seem. No one seems to go unnoticed and they seem really well cared for. I know one of the first episodes a while back (last year???) I saw them reading from the either the D & C or the B.O.M., so who knows.
The Duggars! 18 kids seriously. Michelle Duggar must be drugged most of the time to get through her day. (Yes, I watch.) And what's with all the 'J' names? Josh, Jared, Jinger, JoyHannah, Jill, etc.
I figure if she wants that many-go for it. We can all learn something from them. I watch the show too just to see how in control they all are and how smooth their house runs. I know I;m done with 5 kids and that enough for me!!
By the way-I love your costumes-I am very impressed that you dress up-and Dave. Your girls looked great.
