Everyone in this family are wonderful and beautiful people. I do not have a favorite. You are all exceptional. The parenting skills are over the top. I am proud of each and every one of you. Nameste

    Its so heartening to see Arron have his sparkle back. I believe people seeing him overcome his struggles will inspire them to hang in there as "This too shall pass". Even though we all have our own struggles, they are not often put in the public eye for everyone to see and comment on and while im sure some of that attention is positve im sure some of it is negative and will cause some to spiral even more. You probably don't think so but that is brave and inspiring. Thank you and God bless.

    I love to see how everyone helps to care for Aurora, the baby of the family ... Liam choose a very cute outfit for her... also I can see Aurora loves for all her siblings and how she misses the ones that have move out the most; that's why she had to move so many times from her sit...
    Family outings are so much fun to see everyone happy face ❤

    Pro tip: for the locations you frequent print out the menu. Have everyone review and write down their drink and food choice on a notebook labeled by name. Then just bring the notebook and then the waiter just points the the person and you can read them off. This also means your food is already starting to be prepared when you get there so you're not waiting for everyone to pick then waiting a long time for food.
    Also as a safety measure you should have a plan for a default seat/vehicle if you guys ever need to leave the house in a hurry. Yall have had a big family for years, get it together ya'll

    I do watch all the videos for the last several years. I did think this was different and Mark did a great job editing. When you go to Disney or any family outing..I think people wonder how much does that cost. I think this video peeled back some of the questions. Maybe instead of having a Q and A ..just have videos showing people what that question looks like.
    ***
    I have a question (not necessarily for Q & A)
    But what is the process for your dogs before you leave house? Do you make them go to bathroom? Do you give them a treat and say we will be back?
    ****
    Is it very stressful checking into a hotel room? Do you have to go look at them and check things out before you get in?
    ***
    What do you do if they aren't listening to you?
    What does punishment look like?
    These are some of the things I've been thinking of.
    So maybe you can just show us in blogs whenever someone has questions...🙃

    Some time you should explain how it may be more affordable than one might think to adopt a big family. I know that because my daughter was seven when adopted, the state (Illinois) provided some money for braces and counseling in the future. I'd hate to have a child not get a forever home because some good people thought they couldn't afford it!

    Suggestion when you have leftovers after eating at a restaurant and some people don't want to take them home or won't eat them later. Get the leftovers all bagged up and give them out to the homeless people. I've also have done that with leftovers from parties. It's good to make somebody's day happier and to give them a really good meal to eat. The homeless do really appreciate it.

When My daughter and Son In Law want to go out to eat with us. It takes a act of Congress to come up with where we are eating. The only place we know for sure is our Grandson. He only eats Chick Fli A. So we stop by there on the way to where we finally decide to eat.

Also have a backup item they like just in case. Call ahead so they know your coming also call when youre on the way they maybe able too get appetizers started.

    I come from a big family of 6 kids but my mom always had my three cousins. So 9 or more was always with use my mom forgot to do a head count one time and left me at my dads apartment by accident. Thank god my old cousin lived with my dad. After that we always do a head count.

    Oh wow that’s a lot to get out of the house! I’m always the one checking that the stove is off and such but I have a feeling Aaron would be the one to check that sort of stuff, at least I hope so. Keep it safe Crazy Pieces!
