    Books ABOUT Big Families

    How has literature treated the subject of large families? Serious novelists, children’s authors and non-fiction writers have been drawn to this subject where meal times are always an event and the laundry never ends.

    Goodnight, John-boy by Earl Hamner Jr

    Published in 1961, this novel was the basis for that long-running TV series The Waltons in the 70s. The author, Hamner grew up in rural Schuyler, a village in the foothills of Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains. As is true in most families, the Waltons faced many challenges, occasionally stumbled along the way, but they struggled to live their lives within the framework of the values they believed and taught.

    Hi! I’m Jacqueline!

    Thanks for being part of this journey with me.
    Welcome to my own little place on the internet! Home is where I love to be. I feel there is no greater place to incubate souls. These days you’ll find me using my experiences here to write about herbal remedies and natural health research — a big passion of mine. But being a wife and mother is not easy. It is challenging and potentially lonely. I get that. I wanted to create a place to connect with and support other moms for creating a natural, healthy, and fulfilling home life.
