- “Michael, Erin & Tori. And when you have a huge family, its easily known that it’s not if sickness will spread, it’s when.”
- “That would be my literal worst nightmare. We had a god awful stomach bug run thru my house when I had 3 littles.”
- “With home schooling and home church, we’re they really exposed to much illnesses?”
