With parenthood on the horizon and a good chance for multiples, Hubby and I recently added the Discovery Channel show Jon & Kate plus 8 to our DVR and we watched the first episode last night.

“I don’t know if I want to watch this,” Hubby said, before hitting the PLAY button on the remote. “I think it might scare me.”

Hubby braved the possible emotional trauma and watched the 30-minute episode with me. To see how Kate manages to keep sanity in a household of ten is just mind-boggling. I think I’d have issues with just two. Scratch that. It would be challenging enough with just ONE. But, man, oh man, that woman has EIGHT kids under the age of 10, six of them under 5. I don’t know how they do it. I’ll be watching every episode with particular interest.

But what I want to know is how she managed to carry sextuplets. Oh, my goodness. That is one strong woman!

As for me, I don’t think I can handle sextuplets. Or even quadruplets. Triplets, questionable. Twins, maybe. One would be just perfect. But, we’ll have to see what the Lord has in store for us. I just want the Snowflake(s), no matter how many, to be healthy and strong. Prayers still appreciated!
