Problems & Solutions

Big Family Solutions...

So if we have solutions, that implies that we have problems.  But what are some problems?  If we are going to find solutions, we must first pin point the problems.  

Problems that big families may have; meals (enough said), money/budgeting, shoes (How many shoes do you currently have? Now multiply that times 7!!  Yes, this can be a problem), hair (We have girls), getting out the door (On time), car issues, 

one-on-one time (Need attention?), shopping (With...a baby, a toddler,  a preschooler, 

and thank goodness for the older 2!).  And, there's plenty more...

Well, obviously, there can be plenty of problems that any big family will have to tackle.  Some hit us at different ages and stages, but there is always something to overcome or figure out in order to survive, let alone, thrive!!  We want to thrive as a family, and we want you to thrive too!  We'll throw out some problems that we have tackled, and some of the solutions that we have tried.  Some are great, and some; well, we went back to the drawing board for some! You don't always hit the nail on the head the first time :)  But with any problem, you keep trying and you always get over the hurdle and head toward the next.

So keep checking back for our "Problems" and "Solutions".  We'll tackle them one at a time.  Give us your input, because we can all learn from each other.  What works for you may help others too.  If there is a problem you face that we haven't talked about, let us know. Thanks for joining us on this journey of parent-hood.
