Are they enough? Not yet...





I happened across a writing challenge, The 100 Word Challenge.  It caught my interest. I have neglected  my blog for far too long. So in the spirit of a challenge, here we go.

Enough

By definition, it means the quality or quantity to meet your needs or expectations. What about wants? By some standards, I have "enough" children. That would mean that I have the amount needed to meet my needs or expectations. Truth be told, I don't "need" children. I want them. As for expectations, I never "expected" to have children, much less nine of them with one on the way. I want them. So enough doesn't apply to me at this point in that respect. I don't have "enough" children because I never needed them or expected them. 

Until they got here.
