If any of my readers can top this Mother’s Day story, I have a special prize for you. I’m not referring to finding a better story, I asking if any of you have more than 18 children! Think my prize is safe with me.

Michelle Duggar, 41, is seen here with her family. She is expecting her 18th child in January.
It’s a happy Mother’s Day for an Arkansas woman — she’s pregnant with her 18th child.
Michelle Duggar, 41, is due on New Year’s Day, and the latest addition will join seven sisters and 10 brothers. There are two sets of twins.
“We’ve had three in January, three in December. Those two months are a busy time for us,” she said, laughing.
The Duggars’ oldest child, Josh, is 20, and the youngest, Jennifer, is nine months old.
The fast-growing family lives in Tontitown in northwest Arkansas in a 7,000-square-foot home. All the children — whose names start with the letter J — are home-schooled.
Happy Mothers’ Day indeed.

I’ve heard of this lady before, and have seen pictures of her family. I can’t believe they’re still having kids. I can’t imagine having 18 kids…3 would be the limit for me. lol

Never know, Jen. When you see how pretty your first baby is, you might give Michelle a race. Doubt it though.
