My first cousin and his wife are expecting their first child!! I’m so happy, they live in the Boston area and I’ll be there for college starting in the fall, so I’ll get to see the baby a lot!
Erev Mazel Tov JF2! Let us know when the baby is born!
today is my one-year wedding anniversary. wow, time sure flies when you’re having fun 🙂
incidentally, do you know what they call the 1st anniversary? ‘paper’!! that is so pathetic. i think it should be ‘platinum’.
or maybe just ‘cash’.
WOW! Look at that! So many in one day!
Happy ‘paper’ anniversary to you DE and your spouse!
mazal tov to all and thanx!!!!!!
jf2: maybe i know them….? if only there was a way to know…..
will you be dorming or boarding?
Hi yossi!
and a hi to you too mepal!
So whats the story? How’s your course going? Are you up to the ‘intense’ part yet?
A groisa Mazal Tov to PM upon the birth of his 10th(!!) child! Asach nachas to PM and his entire Rebbishe mishpacha!!!
Oh my gosh! WOW! Mazel tov, PM! May you see nachas from your gantza mishpacha!
Mazal tov PM! May you have enough income to pay tuition for them all 🙂
Soon enough, PM will IY’H have an at-home minyan.
9 BOYS?!?!?! Heavens! (I’m imagining he’d be the ‘tzenter’!) The poor woman…
Hopefully 10 boys, considering the cost to make a shidduch for a girl LOL!
How about the extra cost for a shalom zachur? bris? bar mitzva? Boys aren’t too cheap either! But of course girls are more ‘expensive’. Although, (if he’s from the litvish/heimish circles) at least he’ll have an easier time with shidduchim 😉
Can’t argue with that. And don’t forget pidyon haben, upsherin, etc.
MAzel tov PM and to your wife and your future established minyan!
Hi there, BY2!
Hi there mepal ! I missed you guys busy with school baruch Hashem my relative is doing a bit better so I have a bit of breathing time here!
Wow! So glad to hear! I was thinking about ya and your relative recently. So happy to hear the matzav is improving. That gets a mazel tov too!
mazel tov to all!!!!!!!!!
mepal: oh have i got up to the intense part! it seems like there are only tests, tests, and you guessed it, more tests!
Thank you all very much for the best wishes. Its now 6 boys and 4 girls, so we’ll have to wait ’till the girls are married to have a private minyan.
At least there are more boys… it is what we call a good start. 🙂
PM: Rather than waiting to marry off the girls, it may just be quicker to add to the count of boys…
Joseph, maybe if you offer to take care of all of ’em…
Free babysitting for the next 4 boys.
Niiiiice! Will it be you or your wife doing the services?
Joseph: Let’s see. In 13 years there will be 6 bar mitzva boys plus me for 7. My third girl is 3 1/2 now, almost 17 by then. It would probably be a close call if a 7th son could reach bar mitzva before her chasuna, but it’s worth a try.
I’m flattered that people seem so impressed, but really it isn’t as hard as you might think. Sure the older children have more responsibilities and the younger ones more independence then in a small family, but these are valuable traits in moderation. We manage to give each child some personal attention and each one is able to develop in his or her unique way. I don’t think they would be happier or better off in a smaller family. Sure it is a challenge to balance, but life is all about challenges.
Anyways this is nothing. My 14 year old son has a classmate who’s mother just had triplets, making him the oldest of 19!!!!! This is not a typo.
PM, you mean they’re all still single? Are there boys away at yeshiva at least??
and OMG, 19? Hashem should give the woman strength…
PM: So why the delay? You have 9 to catch-up!!
