18 and counting

My sister and I were talking last week about the Dugger family's impending 19th child. Apparantly my eleven year old niece's comment on the topic was "I think they need to get a hobby". To which her mum replied "I think they already have one, honey".

This reminds me of the time I heard a Scottish musician from (I think) the isle of Tiree. He had 7 brothers and sisters. "It was a great day for my mother when the television came to Tiree", he said.

@ Stacey - it made me laugh too. Amazing the comments kids come out with at times.

@ Sarah - you and me both.

@ Dr Spouse - My brother made a similar quip at my parents' 50th wedding anniversary party. Something along the lines of that they had seven children in a house with no central heating or TV, but that the latter explains the former!
