What was it like growing up the first of 14 in a large, loving Catholic family? This book is the author’s attempt to answer that question! At a young age, she became acutely aware that she was living in the midst of a story too beautiful not to tell, and that one day in the far distant future, the time would come for her to write a book about it. And here it is! The story begins with two amazing parents, who embarked on a journey together to build a family in the 1950’s, ’60’s and ’70’s. It revolves around the commitment they made to God, to each other, their family, and those around them. It’s about how their 14 children were raised, how they lived, what they learned, what it cost them and what they received as a result. It’s the story of a community of love and how everyone worked together for the good of the whole.This collection of memoirs and photos of family and faith is meant to be a gift to posterity, to the author’s siblings, extended family, friends, acquaintances, and all who read this book, with the hope that they will be inspired, challenged and blessed by its pages. May its ten chapter titles tickle your fancy for more: Foundation, Firstborn, Family Homes, Faith, Fundamentals, Feastivities, Fun, 14 Flibbertigibbets, Footprints, and Finale. Buckle your seatbelt...and enjoy the ride!
