In these day and age, a lot of married couple tend to limit the size of their family to a minimum of two or three kids mainly because of financial considerations. Probably true, especially with the high cost of living nowadays. However, for me and my hubs we have always opted to have a big family but we were only blessed with two. Not that I am complaining, I have been gifted with two wonderful and talented kids and it is enough to be thankful for but I guess what I am trying to say is that it would be a lot fun if there were more kids at home –both of us love children!
I have seen the downside of having lots of children but for me it outweighs the benefits of having a big family. More siblings mean having more people to love, a lot more people you can depend on and a lot more people to connect and interact with during family gatherings and holidays. I have seen this magic happen with my husband’s family. I obviously haven’t met the rest of their relatives but we seem to have never ending reunions on his side of the family unlike on my end.
It’s lots of fun although you have to contend with different personalities but I actually consider it more of an advantage because it teaches you how to deal with a variety of individuals which strengthens your character and makes you work hard at being a team player.
Have I been blessed with lots of kids, I would probably opt to have baby accessories which will allow me to mix and match such as the multi-functional Baby jogger city select stroller. It’s functional and economical, perfect for expanding families.
Being a parent, the number of children is not the issue, it’s the quality of love and attention you give to your children that matters most.
