This afternoon, during my daughters’ tennis lessons, one of the children asked my eldest, “How many brothers and sisters do you have?”

My daughter responded, “There are three girls and three boys in my family.”

The child said, “I’m glad that I’m not you.”

My daughter stated, “If your mom had more children, you wouldn’t be glad that you’re not me. I want to have twelve children in our family. I want my mom to have three sets of twins.”

The tennis instructor chimed in, “That’s a lot of children.”

My daughter happily responded, “My mom has been heard to say that the more children she has the easier it gets. I think that the larger our family gets, the more fun it is.”
