My DW sent along a link to an eBay auction to me. Here’s the first paragraph of the description of the Pokemon cards up for bid:

I’m selling a bunch of Pokemon cards. Why? Because my kids sneaked them into my shopping cart while at the grocery store and I ended up buying them because I didn’t notice they were there until we got home. How could I have possibly not noticed they were in my cart, you ask? Let me explain.

You haven’t lived until you’ve gone grocery shopping with six kids in tow. I would rather swim, covered in bait, through the English Channel, be a contestant on Fear Factor when they’re having pig brains for lunch, or do fourth grade math than to take my six kids to the grocery store.

From here she goes on to tell the whole story about taking her 6 to the grocery store. She has over 179,000 views of the auction item, and over 800 watchers. She sold the cards for $142.50.
Personally, I think that 2 or 3 will be plenty of blessing for me and my wife…if He gives us more, so be it…

    I like your attitude, "if He gives us more, so be it."

    In our early marriage days I said 3 would be enough because any more would require a bigger car and wouldn't be very practical. However we found each child increased the love in the family and now drive a 12 seater van with our 7 children. How do you make God laugh? Tell him your plans!
