our family is wonderful but not everyone does...
I am learning that having many children can make it difficult in many ways...
We are not always welcome in many circumstances...
The larger we get the more it is apparent- it is kind of sad...
It is almost like being a minority or having a disability- we are just not accepted...
this opens my eyes to how minorities and people with disabilities feel...
If only others could see beyond the numbers... beyond the color of the skin... beyond the disabilities... to the abilities...
If only they could see the joy, the fun, the love... the hope...
I am guessing that other large families have run into road blocks also...
It is kind of sad...
But we will put our faith in HIM...
He will protect us from the opposition. He will guide us to exactly where he wants us to be and when he whats us to be there.
EDITED-
okay, okay... so hubby just looked at me and said "So you are finally realizing that we do not have a normal family?"
"Ahhh yes, I guess" as I look at our humoungously large family photo that I have always thought was wonderful ;-)
and just so you know humoungously is probably not a word!
