We all owe our deepest thanks to the Mehans, to my own parents (six children) and all the others who are helping us fill this great big empty country of ours with our finest product: Americans.

Hurrah for large families. My wife and I have thoroughly enjoyed parenting our eight children. They have been taught to be good people, provide service to their church and community, work hard, and live moral lives. From an early age, each child was taught to read, work at an education, and enjoy just being a "kid." With only one left living at home, the house seems a little empty. But the phone rings often during the day bringing stories about college, raising families, problems at work, and the general joy of life. We gave up a lot of things to raise eight children. But we gained so much more.
