Blessings in having a large family

We have a big family and consequently many comments follow! "Oh, you must be Catholic" in a derogatory way. "No way are you having any more!" and then men always whisper to me: "When are you getting a vasectomy!" "What's wrong with you, how can you afford it?"

My simple response: "I am blessed." Yes, it's tough financially, emotionally, time wise, and in some cases your career might suffer. Our kids are so special, so no matter the career and the money, nothing will take place of our kids!
