I won't post our letter, but I'll tell you a bit about our family. We live in, now, snowy Michigan, in a smaller city/big town, and although I never thought I'd enjoy town...I love it! So convenient to be down the street from a grocery store AND the library and park. We homeschool our soon to be 8 children, and have since 2000. Dh, John, works in a factory as a manager producing parts for cars. The fact that he still has a job at the end of 2009 is a miracle in itself! I, Sarah, educate children and also work in transportation...to soccer, piano, and homeschool events. I really cut back this year...home is most important!!! We are expecting #8 the end of January, our fifth girl, and being pregnant at 41 has proven to be more complicated and difficult than I thought. We have battled the whole pregnancy with being able to have a VBA2C, even though my c-sections were over 13 years ago and I've had the last 5 by VBAC, including 2 ten pounders! I just recently was diagnosed with Gest. Diab.(for the first time) and feel like a cranky pincushion. Praying God works out the details of when and how this baby will be born to best benefit her health and mine. DD15 is a joy to both dh and I. She took driver's training this year (though she dislikes driving) and is reading more complicated works (Jane Austen, Shakespeare) and has some very deep thoughts on them! She can run the entire household without me, which does my heart good! DS13 is #2 in command after dd. He also can run MOST of the house, though we sometimes question his decisions in laundry and matching outfits for the little girls. He enjoys books about history with a boy flair, and legos, legos, legos. DS10 has started to be able to carry a lot more responsibility around the house also, down to changing diapers. He loves soccer, and computer and Wii games, and the rough and tumble outdoor stuff. DS8 - Busy playing and learning. He had a brain injury in '04, so has therapy 3 times a week. Is slightly delayed, but a miracle in the fact he isn't severely diabled. He wants to be going somewhere or planning something all the time! DD6 - taught herself to read. We're all amazed. Wants to be a big helper...just needs to be a little taller for some jobs. DD5 - Suddenly blossoming into one of the big kids. Loves her school books and playing (and fighting) with her sisters. DD3 - thinks she is doing school too. Tells us "I can't find my math book" when looking for a coloring book (can you tell that's a common refrain around here?) Working on potty training before the new baby comes! Well...that's us in a nutshell. I wanted to tell you thanks for sharing your lives with us. Thanks for allowing camera crews in where most of us would shudder to let them go. Thanks for encouraging those of use who might not have as many children, but share your heart! Blessed Christmas! Sarah M. in MI Blessed Christmas season Jeub family!
