From the "Mothers Of Many Young Siblings" site, Carol forwarded these
selections:
You know you've got a large family when...
...You count your children by multiples of two or more.
...Washing underwear takes more than one washer load.
...You mock 'economy size' boxes.
...The IRS doesn't question you anymore when you add dependents.
...Your children think that all families get a new child every year or so.
...You think a minivan is a compact vehicle.
...Attendance drops by 20% when you don't show up for church.
...You have more shoes than Imelda Marcos, but yours are varied sizes.
...One room is no longer an option when you go to a hotel.
...You think matched socks means two socks that are the same size.
...You see a mom of three and you wonder what she does with all her time.
...The new pediatrician asks you for advice about childhood illnesses.
...Diapers are a line item on your household budget.
...Size doesn't matter when shopping, because the clothes will fit
'someone'.
...You never worry about what to do with leftovers.
...You wonder if they mislabeled your 'extra large capacity' washer.
...People ask you if you run a daycare or school.
...You read the fine print on those 'kids eat free' offers.
And the best? ..You laugh hysterically when someone asks you if you 'work'.
