My great grandmother (Nellie) had 14 children. She is a very strong woman and continues to amaze us all at her stamina! I recently learned that she had alot of her babies at home and that she even assisted the local midwife with some of the births in her neighborhood when she was young! Some of her ancestors were also midwives, which is cool.
My grandmother (Joyce) is her second-born. She had children, my mom (Kelly) being the oldest. My mom had 6 kids and I am the oldest. I was also the first grandchild and great-grandchild. Simeon is the first great-great grandchild and Esther is the first great-great granddaughter!

The history in that picture alone is amazing! That is so special that you could get all 5 generations together!
I love your hair cut!! You look great! I love your stories... family history is so interesting, and often we're not THAT different from our ancestors... just in different context!
Loved your birth story too, I'd love to collect people's birth stories and put them in a book... Chicken Noodle Birth Stories for Pregnant Soul... or something!
Take care!
That's amazing that you have 5 generation in that picture! It's so beautiful!
Esther seems to be getting so big already! I can't wait to meet her in person!
Take care!
Hi! So I am not sure if you remember me but this is Rachel Helm (I lived and worked in Wpg doin' downpour for a couple of years 2000-2002 ish)
I am amazed by the beauty in that photo! that you are blessed by those women in your life! It is a very amazing thing and something that is so rare in today's culture eh!
I was able to grow up in the same house as my mother and grandmother and really appreciate it. I nearly cried looking at your photo's...so beautiful!
Heaps of blessings on you all!
Take care.
Hi Rachel! Thanks for your thoughts! :)

That is neat to see.
And wow! your mom looks young.
Lucky you! you've got some good genes going on!
Oh sorry Deanna, different Ruth.. neat that I made a pregnant comment though to make you think I was the other Ruth. I should log in as Ruth R (we met at breathe)
Oops! Sorry, Ruth. Hope your family has a wonderful Christmas!
