Bo, you and wife are a wonderful couple. Hey, it's great to have kids. Some rare couples are gifted about it -- that's you two. Your 3 little ones demonstrate that. And so will little #4, as will numbers 5, 6, 7, 8.

It's so nice to see someone so aware of his blessings.

Most people take them for granted and only complain about what they DON'T have.

You are raising some wonderful children there!

This is a sweet post. Of course I would recommend international adoption. Isabel is the daughter of my heart and I would adopt 6 more. As a matter of fact I'm looking into China.

Yep, you are fortunate to have Jo for a wife. You lucked out when she gave in and agreed to marry you. If it was up to you to pass along "book smarts" to your offspring they'd be up the creek. Luckily they have an intelligent mother!

Reading this post makes me want to have another one. Trooper just ain't doing it for me anymore.

I love how content you are with your life. The world would be a better place if we were all that way. My own contentment comes in fits and spurts.

BTW, tagged you for a meme on my blog....

I approve of kids shooting guns. I like large families, too, but we only got eight. I have lots of answers for the woman in the grocery store, some of which I've gotten to use.

Your wife ... man, it's getting rare to find one who knows what's important. You done good.

I must admit, I'm envious of the love you share with your wife and the relationships you have with your children. It's too sad that your family is the rarity in today's world, when it should be the norm.

This is such an awesome post, and what your wife said is so true and meaningful. Thanks for sharing.
