Seventeen Children

[AllyOops!]

I'm just glad Mom & Dad's lifetime career of choice isn't state welfare.

I read about the Duggar family in People magazine a few weeks ago. They seem like a very loving and close knit clan. God bless them.

I'm trying to recall all of their names. I love the name Jill. And Justin. And Joseph. But...Jinger? Like "finger"? Or is the "g" silent like "singer"? I've never heard of the name "Jinger"! Isn't that the name of the lead horse on the King Arthur Carousel at Disneyland?? You know, the pony painted gold for the 50th Anniversary?

Wait, I remember. The Merry-Go-'Round horse is named Jingles. Should they choose to have another child, they should name he or she Jingles.

It sounds almost naughty. "My Jinger got caught in the door!" Or, "my Jinger got stuck in my zipper again".
