Such a blessing.

“Are all these yours?” “Do you run a daycare?” “Your hands are full” are not negative! Your hands ARE full! It’s pretty incredible that they are all YOURS! Accept that compliment with grace! The daycare one is funny! “You could say that, but no one picks them up at 6”😅

I hope she realises that the people who say "Are they all yours?" "You've got your hands full" are also good people and not negative comments at all. They're just trying to start a conversation with her.

My mom had 4 by the time she was 25. Her and dad split and she was a single mom. Our only extended family was mom's parents. From us 4 kids she has 7 grandkids and 14 great grandkids. These kids will never be alone. Proud of the big family us 4 kids built. Thanks mom. ❤️

This is a great reminder to say something positive to parents with children in a store. Children are blessings from God. ❤️🙏

Thanks for posting this Keri

My pleasure, Debbie. 😌

@debbiegatlin5 Yes, this was a great start to my morning. Thank you 🥰

@debbiegatlin5 You’re welcome.☺️

We have 6 girls, 4 boys. I’m of Sicilian descent, wife is light skin. Most of the kids are olive skinned. Two of our girls are pinky white. While standing in a check out line, a lady behind her pointed at the light skinned ones and said “ looks like you ran out toner” FUNNY!

My goodness we need more women like her! She sees her own flaws and wants to overcome them...yet she is obviously strong enough to have and raise all those beautiful children. Wonderful!

Girl you had a lot of damn kids. 6 kids under 6. You should expect questions

My wife and I have eight kids. We've heard all kinds of comments over the years. Many times people just innocently shooting themselves in the foot. But I'll tell you there has been no greater blessing than having a large family. It's brought so much joy. We just added another daughter. Now to have our children are married. God is good.

"Are these all yours?", "you look like you run a daycare" and " you certainly have your hands full" are not negative. Some ppl are just awkward and don't say profound or moving comments. I am awkward and would probably say any of those things. I also think you are very blessed 💖

She’s not blessed she’s stressed and her uterus is over worked I feel so bad for her she’ll never have time for herself her mental health nothing just sad

Don't know why moms throw hissy-fits when a passerby says, "You have your hands full!"(I get that all the time when I go out with my 5 littles). I just smile and go "Yep!" and the person smiles, nods and moves on. It's seriously a no-biggy!

Amen. He was right. We had six 10 and under, then our 7th. We always heard: "Are you done, yet?” (Oh, like a loaf of bread?) "Don't you know what causes that?” (Yes, and we like it very much…and I’m VERY good at it.) “Don’t you own a TV?” (What’s better on TV than making these babies?) “Your husband should get a traveling sales job!” (He has one, and he’s very happy to see me when he gets home.) “Don’t you know how much college is?” (Looks like you didn’t go, or you skipped the manners and etiquette class. Maybe it was an elective, hmmm?) “Don’t you know how much college is?” (Am I asking you to pay for them?) “Whoa! Catholic or Mormon?” (Catholic. We get to have a lot of kids AND drink whiskey when they make us crazy. Which reminds me…I need more bourbon.) You are blessed. Thank you for sharing.

When someone says "Looks like you have your hands full' it's not to be negative.. it's to break the ice and acknowledge you as a person and say "I see you, and your doing a good job"

I highly suspect that most, if not all of those: “you got your hands full” type of comments are people expressing their awe of you and your beautiful family. I say this as someone who has found out that I insulted a friend when I was actually giving her a compliment! It’s all in the interpretation. Often we hear what we expect to hear…

Your blessings from above are priceless! Just as seasons change … time with them is short so savor every moment ❤️ Praying He fills you with absolute love joy and wonder though-out your days with these little ones. 🙏

His generation had families that were very large, 10 or 12 children in some cases. I think he was saying that it’s so good to see a woman with that many children again. The American family is dwindling. Women raising children have the most important job! Bless you!

As a mother of nine, I feel so compelled to speak to moms like you, and that is exactly what I would tell you! You are so blessed, we who have done it know there is nothing more beautiful than a generous mother who loves her babies! Hang in there, it only gets better and better!

You are a blessed and an incredible mama to take all those kids to the grocery store like a champ! That man was a blessing too. If I saw you in the grocery store I would probably stare too but it would be in awe 🤩

So true young lady! Children are a blessing. We need more people on the planet like you. 💕💕

I can’t have children. You are so blessed. You should be reminded every day.

I heard "are they all yours?" a lot when my kids were younger. It didn't seem negative to me. Also as a mom of twins I wish I had a carrier like that when mine were babies!

Twins sleeping in that carrier might be the cutest thing I’ve seen in a long time🥰

I don't take "are all these yours" or "you've got your hands full" as inherently negative. One is just a question, and the other is a statement of absolute fact. I am, however, excited to hear my first "have you ever heard of just watching TV" because I'm going to embarrass them

Those babies are a gift from God and are beautiful blessings. God bless you and your family🙌🏼🙏🏻❤️✝️

Christians understand that having children surpasses any material asset you could possibly own children are life’s riches and are blessings some never have the fortune o receive . God bless you and your beautiful family 🙏❤️

You are blessed. Parents don’t realize until they’re old that they should have had more children. I wish I had more! Children are what makes life worth living. Don’t stop until you want to.

You are a blessing for the humanity, encouraging youth to think about the blessings available to them. God may be with your family always.

My only child passed away years ago. I wish I had six children…they truly are a blessing and the grandbabies will bring even more joy

Okay but she’s posting her children online also peep the hair on the twins. Those babies spend a lot of time in a carrier of some kind. It rubs the hair bald.

You don't see large families like this as much as when I was young. I'm in my mid 50's. In retrospect, I wish we would have had more. I'm happy with my 2. They turned out so great.

@KelemenCari How could anyone look at those beautiful babies and not think this momma is incredibly blessed.

I went to mass in Chattanooga and Dallas recently and there were so many children which was so uplifting to see. So happy to see young people are open to bringing life into the world! Bless you!
