"You have -HOW- many kids?"
An arkansas women has just given birth to her 15th child. She started at the age of 21, and is now 37, making her children all under the age of 16.
The newest one is Jackson Levi, following the tradition of naming all the children using the letter J.
Their children include two sets of twins, and the parents have stuck to the letter "J" for their names. There is Joshua, 16; Jana and John-David, 14; Jill, 13; Jessa, 11; Jinger, 10; Joseph, 9; Josiah, 7; Joy-Anna, 6; Jeremiah and Jedidiah, 5; Jason, 4; James, 2; and Justin, 1; and now Jackson, newborn.
I can say it's not for everyone. I can't even begin to imagine having half that many. The father said in a phone interview last night that he was leaving the desicion of whether or not to have more, up to his wife. He explained that while they both love children, he feels that her opinion should be the final one as she carries them, and goes through labor. Not to mention she makes most of the kids clothes, and home schools all of them.
I can't even begin to imagine what meal times are like there.
