Dear diary,

My daughter Ann is already a teenager. She is such a spirited young girl blosseming into a young woman. I love to see the development in my girls when they go from child to woman.

My son Benjamin got married. We were all happy for them to get engaged but soon after we heard devastating news. His fiance, Mary, is pregnant! I couldn't believe it but I had to face it. I'm going to be a grandmother way to soon because he has been seduced. No good can come from wearing pants. (AN: Yes, she blames the pants for all of it)

All my boys, Roger, Matthew, Marco, Benjamin, Stephen, George, Charles and William. And me and Marco with the bride and groom. Ofcourse she couldn't wear white anymore.

It was a lovely ceremony but it hurted so much to see her belly. But so thankful to know they are married now and this baby will be cared for.

Dear diary,

We have been blessed with our 7th son! I love to have an equel amount of girls and boys. Now we are equal again! Our seventh son is named Stephen Frederick Doyle and he is named after Stephen Frederick Olford.

My 9th child and 4th son got engaged. I didn't got to be part of it this time because I was just postpartum but I loved hearing the story of Matthew and Lana. They are perfect for each other and I can't wait to see what the Lord has in store for them. (AN: this is like the 9th time I have wrote that, she can't say anything else when one of her childeren is getting married)

And like it hasn't been buzy enough, the twins got to celebrate their birthday. I'm actually very relieved to have another teenager daughter to help me. George and Florence love to spend time together as twins but also apart. George loves to be just by himself while Florence goes out and about to meet people, always putting herself second. They are both very active and they work out together all the time.

In all the business of life, there still needs to be time for homework. Taking care of toddlers, changing those newborn diapers, cooking, cleaning, and so much more.
