Quiverfull families

[John81]

We have five from 9-25. That's my idea of a "gap theory" :| .

Love that "gap theory"

Our three are ages 8-20

well... I don't have a quiver yet, but I'm part of a big quiver-- number 1 in rank. There's 9 total, ranging from ages barely-10 to 20 and 10.5 months :D

Dear GMRLady,

We currently have eight and #nine is due Feb. 2010. We have two boys and (this will be) seven girls. It has turned out to be a blessing in our life. It definately alters your priorities. Big fancy house? Well, not for us, but nice little house in the coutry. 09 15 passenger van? Well, no, actually, 1992, but she is a peach and we all love her and call her Mrs. Blue. Bass boat? Not that either, but we got fishing poles and we can stand on the bank with the best of em'! In Spurgeon's, 'Teasury of David,' he comments on Ps. 127 and tells of a rich man who comes upon a poor man with many children. The rich man says, "These are they which make you poor." to which the poor man replied, "No, these are they which make me rich!" All a matter of perspective. Study the life of Susannah Wesley. She had twenty something. Of them we got John Wesley, the firebrand preacher, and Charles Wesley who wrote a bunch of the hymn in our hymn books. Here's our quiver so far.
