Domina Dea Speaks

Okay, I admit it, I have a few guilty pleasures. We all have a few of those little things we might not want to admit to for fear we’ll be judged harshly. TLC’s “18 Kids & Counting” happens to be one of mine. I can’t begin to explain why, maybe its because this family is the EXACT opposite if my life, or perhaps I occasionally need a dose of good, old fashioned, wholesome in my life, but no matter the reason, I am a fan.

Yesterday the Duggar’s announced that Michelle, who will be 43 on the 13th of this month, is expecting their 19th child in March of 2010.  NINETEEN? Seriously? I was actually both excited and shocked by this news. And, it got me to thinking; how is it they have managed to bring 18, seemingly beautiful, happy, healthy, humans into this world with out so much as a minor birth defect? It’s really amazing. I also wonder, at what point do they decide enough?

Carry on Duggars, with your homespun wholesomeness, financial advice, organizational skills and over the top modesty.  I will keep watching, I can’t help myself.
