Large families

All families come in all sizes and all families are special.
A family with three or more children is considered a “big” family.
Some families are turns into large families when the mother or father has children from a previous relationship, and then melt the family together as one.
For others, it becomes because apart from the biological children they already have, they adopted or foster other children.
But in most cases, the large family are just ´naturally’ evolved.
There are pros and cons to having a large family. Perhaps the biggest concern for most families with many children is the money (children must eat, be clothed, they have to study) and often it is a struggle for large families who must rely on two incomes. Another problem is time; there simply are not enough hours in a day to give each child the attention they need. But usually children who grow up in a large family have great appreciations for the immediate family.

Personal thinking, having a big family has many advantage, in fact I have one, and I have to admit that it is a lot of work every day (specially in my case in which all are little), but it is very amused at home, the kids always have someone to play with and there is always enough love in the house for a hug or a kiss who needs.

My quatrain

Sometimes I think I don´t deserve you,
it´s just so wonderfull to be with you.
You are my greatest lover, my best friend,
nobody in the world will ever know how fortunate I am.
