I am definately showing it to my husband. He has recently been very discouraged about being "stuck" at his job (which brings in slightly less than your income!), and anticipating many more children in the future, Lord willing. I know we can manage just fine with the Lord taking care of us, but it's really good to see how it's worked out for those who've gone ahead! You have to know this is so encouraging to me.

He promises it in His Word! I think that people that have a problem understanding that have a problem distinguishing between "wants" and "needs". I am one of only two, but my family still struggled by the world's standards. But, by God's standards we have ALWAYS been and continue to be blessed. Possessions do not make a person happy. But, living for Christ does! God bless! I agree! God certainly does supply all of our needs. He promises it in His Word!

His grace and mercy are so undeserved but He pours out His blessings on those who choose to follow Him. Please continue your work in raising Godly children and sending out the message of Christ!

It doesn't take as much money to raise a large family as people think when God provides our needs. As soon people hear how many children we have you can almost see the dollar signs that they are adding up in their heads! Yes they eat a lot, wear through a lot of clothes but God is faithful, and He promises to provide for what we need. All praise to Him!

It is obvious from the TLC show that you have a lovely home and property, and that your family is very well taken care of. I so enjoy your book - I have read it three times already!

We wish Wendy a happy, healthy, delivery. May God continue to bestow his blessings upon your family. You are truly wealthy in many ways. We are sorry we haven't had the opportunity to see you again on TV. Your family is truly an inspiration. I try to remind myself I can continue to homeschool 3 if Wendy can handle 14. (Ha, Ha) Our communtiy's drug problem has become significantly worse and I find myself becoming an avid and very public proponet of homeschooling. I feel that this is truly my calling. We have recently formed a student government club in our area for the homeschool community that fosters awareness of the homeschool community. We are still considered a very "Strange" bunch in our area. I again wish you only the best. Congratulations on the new baby! We wish Wendy a happy, healthy, delivery.
