Re: My Family Has Greatly Expanded
This is how Christians should be propagating the gospel folks!

Are you telling us that your church DOES have one next to the baptistry?
I hate to break it to you, but you're probably involved in a cult that's even worse than the UPC!!!!!

It's annoying, to be sure, but it must be even MORE difficult for the parents to find that ONE NAME THEY BOTH AGREE ON, for the 14th time, with the selection narrowed down to one letter section and their top 13 favorites already taken.

Not forever. Once you cross an unspecified quantity threshold, folks stop laughing and start just staring in speechless, dumbfounded awe. We like to tell ourselves that they are in awe of our wholesome looking and well-behaved children, but in reality they are probably in awe of our (perceived) stupidity.

With six or eight you could put them in fuzzy winter coats and string them together like a bore brush and clean chimneys in 1/4 the time!
