30 Everywhere we go, people ask us questions. Sometimes the questions—and their answers—are really funny; sometimes they are very serious. They want to know everything from whether we like our husbands’ beards to how we juggle busy schedules to whether they can have Miss Kay’s biscuit recipe (which is included in this section). They ask us how we keep our children grounded and whether or not Uncle Si really is everything he seems to be. They also ask about our faith and about what it’s like to have such a large family. Sometimes, girls ask me if they can marry John Luke or guys ask me if they can have Sadie’s phone number. I’ll go ahead and answer those now: no and no.
Before we finish this book, we want to address some of the most common questions we receive. Some of those questions are directed to a specific person; others are ones we all want to comment on. I hope you will get to know us even better through these last pages, and if you have a question we don’t answer, maybe we’ll see you in our travels one of these days and you can ask us then!
