This book was great! Kate Gosselin came across as direct and outspoken as she is in the reality show "Jon & Kate Plus 8". She told the story as if she were telling it to a close friend - the good, the bad, the embarassing and the wonderful. Jon and Kate's faith shines through every word. I laughed, cried and was filled with joy when I read of the blessings they received from the Lord during the pregnancy and birth of the sextuplets. Kate's descriptions of the children while they were in NICU are amusing. She describes Joel's personality as an "exact replica of his daddy's personality - not too many ups, not too many downs, just steady and relaxed, go with the flow, and never in a hurry." This book tells of the emotional and physical challenges Jon and Kate faced from the time the babies were conceived through the first two years. On the back cover it reads "Eight children in three years? Impossible! Kate and Jon Gosselin have learned that through God, all things are possible - though sometimes slightly improbable." When you read this book you will feel a part of the wonderous ride through life the Gosselin family has embarked on.
