Big Family
Post contributed by Martha Case
Being part of a big family is great, but it’s less great when you have to move. We’ve got 6 kids and that’s a lot of fun a lot of the time but when we decided to move into a new place to give everyone more space and generally just spread out. We were in the 3 bedroom for so long – there’s no reason 3 kids should have to share a bedroom well into their teens! But anyway, my husband and I looked into everything from Direct TV packages to the size of the backyard to even the idea of an in-ground pool but you know, at the end of the day we had to be judicious because we were already spending more than we probably should just by buying a new house. I don’t know what in the world we were thinking but we’re having a lot of fun doing it and the kids love being able to have more space! I don’t know why we didn’t make this move years ago.
