Just thought I'd share this, since I thought it was kind of neat.
I was out at the grocery store with the four youngest kids today and a older man came up to me and said "What a nice bunch of children you have!"
And I said "Thanks!" And we talked a bit about kids, etc... And then he said "My daughter has six kids. Her husband is a firefighter, and he's delivered 5 of them, at home in their jacuzzi tub" And I said "That's great! Homebirth is such a nice way to have a baby, I think. We've had a bunch of ours at home too."
It's always nice to run into someone who thinks that larger families, and home births, and even water births are great. And what are the chances that it would be an older man, met out of the blue at the grocery store!
