A funny occurance

It finally happened.

I've been summoned for jury duty! Imagine that, and in the month that I am due with my 14th baby--my husband was grave when he read the summons to me, but I laughed!

There are no "occupational" exemptions in our state, and they provide childcare up to $50 a day and have a little child care center at the courthouse. I read somewhere on the net that, if they don't respond to your situation on the phone, you should bring your kids with you when you are supposed to appear--that would be great fun! We could call it a "field trip"!

I can just imagine the face of the judge when he gets an eyefull of all of us--at least the 15yo on down--that would make 10 children and one on the way--they would overwhelm the little nursery--do you think they'll give me an exemption?

Yep I definately think you should show up with all your littlies. Have them sit in the front row ;-)

That is hilarious. I really admire your upbeat attitude. I wish I could watch the judges face when you bring in your children. LOL!
