    Ha ha
    Well they are nicely spaced (2 or 3 years apart) 5 are adults now.
    I think people imagine 10 toddlers running around like loons :o
    They have their own chores, they have to learn to be considerate when have to share, they are not given everything they want so what they do get they are grateful for plus they know the're not the centre of the universe.
    We also do have a little bit of order amongst the chaos ;)

    Lol, I have a 9 month old. My wife and I are still grasping the thought of another. They are such a blessing though.

    Let me know if "blessing" is still the word you use to describe them when they are teenagers LOL!

    You have 10 kids. You have enough for a baseball team. That would solve the problem of lack of activity :lol:

    Hi Smeagols Mum, we have 9 but only two are little now :) I have 4 by birth plus 5 acquired as steps.

    Love a large family! In the summers we still get 6 kids in the house, four of them adult and helpful.
