They might have trouble adjusting but they've got the boys to help out, as well as a willing grandparent in Araminta. <br /><br />Five kids is the most any family have ever had in Sullivan. I did have one family in a previous hood have 8 kids. The wife went into labour at the same time her father was dying and she got stuck in some kind of giving birth loop and finally stopped at 6 babies (they already had two kids). That was totally insane, so I think I can actually cope all right with five!<br /><br />The toy store is really the only thing Ione has in mind. The job <i>I</i> have in mind for her is not something she would have considered for herself but she'll be happy there at least temporarily. Hopefully, she'll build up enough cash from that job so she can buy a shop somewhere. I hate home businesses, and I try to avoid them whenever possible!<br /><br />Thanks for reading!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-33991046403204763232011-06-08T05:56:49.761+10:002011-06-08T05:56:49.761+10:00Five kids, wow.

Back then, I don't know if they could even have kept the fridge full. Evan and Ione are better equipped to handle all this now, although I still hated to put them through TWO awful ROS in the one round.

I'm looking forward to being done with this ROS and am hoping everyone makes it through.<br /><br />I was testing out the toymaking, to see how much of a profit Ione would make just doing it at home for a while. Even with the most expensive toy, there's only a $50 profit on each one, so I don't know that it's worth it just yet. I definitely want to do a toy shop with Ione eventually but not just yet.

And he makes such an adorable couple with Lauren! I hope he'll be more lucky than Connor! Cute nerds with gorgeous girls can end up heartbroken!<br /><br />Poor Evan, these flu seem really serious! I had already forgotten he might have died! (it's a too traumatizing idea to stay in my mind!), so I wasn't too worried! *lol*<br /><br />I'm sorry that Ione lost her job, just when she's about to have her 5th kid, but I'm sure she'll be all right. It can be a nice opportunity to work from home, and keep an eye on the baby. I like the idea of a toys shop. Maybe she could sell few toys before owning her own shops?
