Better than meeting Brad Pitt.

I am very excited. There is a spring in my step. I'm going to an event.
Watching Kids By the Dozen is one of my most favorite things to do. I've shared before about this. I admire those mega-families. I find their lifestyles and attitudes remarkable.
The first episode I ever saw was on the Jeub family, right here in Monument CO. They have 14 children (13 during the airing of their show).
I was mesmerized as I watched. Intrigued, engaged, inspired. They struck me in a major way for various reasons. I have the show recorded still, and watch it periodically as I fold laundry. I have fantasized about calling her on the phone and seeing if she would let me come and watch their lives for a day or two.
They love God. They look at their children as a true blessing. They have a deeply loving home. They have kind, helpful kids. They home school (a topic that Bob and I consider and discuss extremely often).

They are coming to our church to speak!
I'm going to meet the Jeubs!
I'm going to meet the Jeubs!
(Said twice for emphasis) Because....
I'm going to meet the Jeubs!

I'm thrilled. I'm so thankful. I can hardly wait.
