Primarily written by Adrienne, a homeschooling mother of seven, ages 10 and under. She chronicles life, laughs, struggles, and lessons learned as she raises a larger-than-most sized family and tries to figure out what she's doing day by day.

With occasional posts, Alexandra, Adrienne's older sister, writes of her ranch life in Nevada and raising four sons, ages 5 and under. Life is never dull and her boys have given her some pretty awesome stories to tell.

Stick around awhile, and you're sure to laugh, nod, smile, be encouraged, and see what life is like with a big (little) family.

A letter.

Dear Child, (who shall remain nameless, because I promise you, this will embarrass you later)

There’s a saying about not putting a ‘p’ in the ‘ool. You know the one. Please don’t.

I know you were told by an outside source that peeing in the lake is acceptable. I cringe, but the fish do it, so I suppose I’ll let it slide.

The slip and slide is not a lake. Not even close. Not cool. So not cool. The bathroom is inside, dear one. Try that next time.

Love,

Momma

I have always told my kids that if they p in the ool that the water will turn a darker blue and then I will know that they did and then they are in big trouble!
