If you’re counting heads for dinner, it’s five kids. But if you’re counting love, it’s infinite. Each child brings a different flavor: teenage angst, pre-teen energy, step-family dynamics, toddler destruction, and baby snuggles. It’s a full spectrum of human emotion, usually happening before 8 AM.
And here’s the secret Stacey teaches us without even trying: you don’t need a perfect house or a perfect schedule. You just need a big heart and a willingness to laugh when the glitter gets stuck in the dog’s fur.
So, the next time you feel overwhelmed by your own two or three kids, just think of Stacey. She’s out there with a baby monitor in one hand and a glue gun in the other, proving that family is messy, sparkly, and absolutely wonderful. And yes, her laundry is probably still waiting to be folded.
