Living with the Gargoyles

Large families seem to be a thing of the past in today's corporate America. The gas guzzling, fast food eating, fast-paced culture of our society shuns the larger-sized families because their carbon footprint is too big! Well, I assure you that each of our carbon footprints are small and my children will have a positive impact on their society.

Currently, Ed and I have three children. Lexi is 3, Carter will be 2 soon, and Rayne is 6 months. We are struggling to get by financially as many middle class families are. Our mortgage and complentary payments are high. Insurance takes a big dent out of our pockets every month. We struggle to breastfeed and to feed our kids organic foods. Trying to learn how to be self-sustainable is a job in itself, but we are determined. You see, we want more children and I don't want finances to be the determining factor!

I don't feel that letting my kids watch cartoons is going to hurt who they become. My son now is watching Clifford, the Big Red Dog so that I can blog this post!! My daughter is sleeping soundly on OUR bed and my older girl is up at camp with her Nani. Ed is working at the Post Office and I am dreaming of a clean house. I set up this blog to share with family and friends and I plan to just tell it like it is. No ideals here, just plain honesty.

So sit back, relax, dim the lights, and enjoy living with the Gargoyles.
