I am posting a link to another blog. I read this the other day and I thought that it was very well said and it's my feelings exactly.
Blog Post Here
Quoted from her blog:
"I believe children are miracles and no child joins any family without Gods approval first :) please don't try and tell him he was wrong."
Exactly right. Just because it's a fourth, fifth, sixth, etc. doesn't mean that child is any less important and just because you have a large family doesn't mean you are ignorant, unaware of how much children cost, or unaware of where babies come from.
Tim Tebow was baby #5 (and if you haven't read his story it's really amazing, you should look it up) and so was George Washington (the 5th of 10 children). And many intelligent people have decided to have larger families as well: Presidents Reagan and Bush both had five. And the grand total for all the presidents is: 27 presidents that had more than 2 kids and 20 having more than 3. Yes, they were more financially blessed, but thats neither really here nor there.
I guess my ramblings are going in the same place her blog went: don't judge or say hurtful things. Everyone's family is different and not all families look the same.
