Dear Dr. Laura:
I am part of the "Fabulous Five" club - meaning my husband and I have five children! In this club, parents have a very detailed, planned-out schedule with little "wiggle room." Those of us who have this many kids know that one slight change (which unfortunately, is a daily given) can trigger a domino effect and alter the events of the entire day. Our wallets are almost always empty, gray hairs are shining through from our scalps, and when you call for one of your kids, you often go through the entire list by name before you get to the right one.
The washing machine is always going, and my house always needs some attention, BUT....
we are never lonely, our hearts are always full (most of the time with joy), we laugh often, and my husband and I have been assured by our kids that we will never be left in a nursing home.
We wouldn't have it any other way!
Ramona
