Learning As I Go

C'mon--I know you are dying to ask questions!
Yesterday I posted what I thought was really cool news--I get to interview the Duggar family for ParentLife magazine! I sent out a call for questions and I haven't heard from any of you!

So I'm thinking, OK, I will try this again, because SURELY you have questions. This is a homeschooling family of two parents and SEVENTEEN children! (At least, they are going on 17, as the new baby is due any day now!). Besides all those kids, what is equally incredible is that this is a family that is DEBT FREE!!!

Now, seriously, I've got plenty of questions, assigned and otherwise, to ask this amazing family! But I thought that some of you guys would have questions too! If you could spend a day with Michelle, the mom, what would you be most interested in? How she cooks? A cleaning schedule? How she fits in a shower for herself?

C'mon...I know you have questions...

Tuesday, July 17, 2007 - Question for Dugger's

Posted by Anonymous


I've had four kids, and I have noticed the additional aches and pains that have occurred with each pregnancy. What's it like the 17th time around?

That is a GREAT question! Thank you! I had not even gotten there yet in my thinking. Nine months times 17 pregnancies equals 153 months of being pregnant. In my book, that is 153 months of feeling flu-like symptoms. I am not good at being pregnant! She must be good at it! I will definitely ask!!! I cannot imagine...

Thanks again!

Wow, I have seen this family on the news before. That is awesome that you'll get to meet them!!

If I could ask Mrs. Dugger any question, it would be, "What kind of reactions do you get from people when you tell them that you're the mother of 16 children?" I know that our family gets some weird reactions when people find out that we have 7; I can't imagine how it would be with 16!!

Today it seems really insane, but throughout history, 16 children was pretty normal. Did you know that JS Bach had 20?

God bless,
Sylvia

Hey, thank you for the comment. My mom said she had fun too. I regret not going with her now. Yeah, Danya said everyone was pretty much acting crazy. I'm sorry no one took your picure.

Peace Out (Sorry, that's like my signature. I always leave that at the end of a comment. Bye.)

I did ask Michelle how she had handled everything body-wise and she told me that after every pregnancy everything just went back into place, so to speak, just fine. She is very healthy and feels very called to being a mom!
