“Everytime I see this show on tv, I am amazed, but skeptical that things are as good as they make it sound. But, in the book, they admit to certain difficulties. But, they really seem to love each other and the entire famiily. All the kids are really cute. This book could be helful for people with huge families w/ multiple children. For many people, like myself, I guess it is not for me.
I can't imagine the chaos every day. But, I did like the section on organizing household things to prevent clutter. They share stories of when Jim Bob & Michelle first met and their early marriage. They also claim to be debt free. Totally amazing.
Now, their oldest son and his wife are expecting their first baby in the fall of 2009. ”
