“However do you manage?” Anne blurted as Mattie picked up her rag again. Seeing Mattie’s expression, full of startled questions, she blushed and clarified herself. “I mean keeping track of so many babies.”
But I don’t manage,” Mattie objected, looking distressed. “You can see for yourself I wouldn’t get anywhere without your help.”
Anne heaved the heavy dresser back against the wall and shooed Joseph away from the dirt pile. “No, what I mean is how can you keep so calm? Every way you turn, there’s another child demanding your attention. How can you keep your wits about you in seeing to all their needs?
Mattie took a moment to ponder on her reply. “If it were not for the daily strength of God,” she said slowly, “and the understanding of friends, we couldn’t do it. And they’re our children. Loving them helps to make the sacrifice easier to selflessly meet their needs.”
Meet the plucky woman with eleven prescholars. Mattie didn’t consider her lot in life as unusual. She didn’t consider herself a good manager. But somehow she left the children feeling blessed with their happy home life. A story for our times.
