Okay. This woman reaaaaaaaaally loves babies.

Well, okay. I dig babies, they’ve always enjoyed being held by me. They fall asleep easily for me. All well and good.

This woman, she likes babies too. I’d say she likes babies much much more than anyone I’ve ever met in my entire life.
And she wants more. :eek:

Yikes. Wouldn’t be me.

My grandpa was one of 17 siblings. His mother ran out of names so she named him by his astrological sign - Leo.
Additionally, nobody could remember his exact birthdate so they had to assign him one around the approximate date he was born. :eek:

Before I clicked the link to read the story, I thought “I bet this is the lady that keeps giving her kids J names.” Go figure.

And to think all their children’s names start with the same letter.
Isn’t that cute.

:sigh: Does my home state proud, it does.

I bet her uterus is the size of a Volkswagen.

Hah! :smiley:

There’s another thread on this family over in IMHO, for those who might be interested.

I loved this line:

Uh huh. Here’s a perfect opportunity for a test. Start using birth control. If “the lord” still wants to “give” you some more, it’ll happen. If not, well, you’ll still have lots of grandkids down the line.

Hey, it really doesn’t matter to me how many kids a couple want to have, but isn’t this just a little ridiculous?

By the way, spelling one of the names as “Jinger” is cheating.

I, for one, think it’s wonderful that this family is doing its part to fight the dangerous problem of world underpopulation that we face.

Populating the world is one thing; these people seem to be taking a run at populating the whole freaking galaxy. All we can do at this point is hope for early menopause.

The worst part is their names! Especially the girls.

Janna, Jessa, Jinger (sounds like ginger, but looks like singer with a J), Joy-Anna and Johannah.

There are so many nice J names for girls like, Julie, Jane, Jennifer, Janet, etc.

Huh. They were married when she was 17 and he was 18, by my calculations, and had their first kid four years later. It’s pretty amazing that they’re still married since they got hitched so young. I’ve read about them before. It sounds like they’re decent parents. If they want lots of kids, well, I don’t think their family will push us all into extinction through natural resource depletion.

The names are pretty awful. They may constitute some form of abuse.

Wait. Didn’t Nicholas Cage just name his baby Kal-El?

Yeah, I know he probably never said it, but it’s still the first thing I thought of!

At this point - actually, long before this point - I’d be concerned about the health and well-being of the mother and her children. Women don’t usually conceive while they’re breastfeeding because the mother’s body needs time to rebuild its resources before having another kid. It seems to me that having kids one right after another weakens both the mother and each sucessive baby. I wouldn’t be surprised if she has osteoperosis or other health problems down the line.

It’s not nice to fool the Lord!

:smiley:

Here’s hoping one day they’ll figure out why this keeps happening. :wink:

Okay, first of all, we’re not hearing directly from her; and second of all, the best he can say is “she’s willing to accept them.” Not exactly the “woo hoo impregnate me now” message one might expect.

Plus, the four-year lag at the beginning of marriage – whaddya bet it took them that long to figure out the whole Tab A/Slot B thing?

Why the hell are there a bunch of Percy Sledge music download ads in this thread?
