Wonderful show. Thanks, guys!
The first thing that I loved about the show was that both of you pushed back on those who would dare criticize you for having the number of children who wanted, and knew you could take of. As you said, The Lord Will Provide! How dare someone interpose their values on you.
May your Podcast go on and on. You are just wonderful together.
By the way, I also loved Bethany saying that gave up taking chances when she met Seth!
I discovered parenthood at 40, and now I’m almost 50 and raising a foster daughter and a special needs daughter. I think I might raise another or two before I go down for The Big Sleep. It gives life real meaning. It gives you a reason to get up in the morning and do all the crap you have to do. It gives you a reason to sacrifice: to drive an old car, live somewhere cheap, find pleasure in books and cooking rather than buying expensive things, and work whatever angles you have to work when it comes to things like Medicaid. It’s what you have to do – and it’s worth it.
