[ Woman Narrating ]
Twelve is our number.

:01:17
It's the number of games my husband Tom
coaches at Lincoln College every season.

:01:21
It's the number of times we zero out our
bank account each year to make ends meet.

:01:25
And it's the number ofkids
we try to keep track of.

:01:33
- [ Sighs ]
- Hey. Good run?

:01:36
Oh, yeah.
[ Groans ]

:01:39
You need a paramedic?
:01:42
No,just a pair of knees.
You finish?

:01:45
Still proofing, but I'm sending it
to Diane today.

:01:49
Look at this.
New, clean cover...

:01:51
no peanut butter stains...
yet.

:01:54
- Hey, baby?
- Baby?

:01:57
You know, on the run,
you know what I was thinking?

:02:00
What?
:02:04
Well, we've been married,
what, five years?

:02:08
- Twenty-three.
- [ Groans ] Twenty-three. Sorry.

:02:11
And I think we could use
a little change around here...

:02:14
like-like this
lumpy old mattress.

:02:16
- Maybe we should just,
you know, get rid of it.
- [ Giggling ]

:02:19
Don't be ridiculous, honey. You know you
can just pound the lumps out of a mattress.

:02:22
What-What do you mean? You can just
pound the lumps out of a mattress?

:02:26
Yeah,just randomly
start swatting away.

:02:28
- And it goes flat?
- Yes, yes.

:02:30
Just start-- You just randomly
start swatting--

:02:36
[ Shouting, Laughing ]
:02:40
Careful.
:02:45
- I got a dog on me!
- [ Woman Narrating ] Twelve's
an insane number ofkids...

:02:48
but having a small family
was never an option for us.

:02:51
See, Tom loved growing up
with seven brothers and sisters.

:02:56
And after my sister died,
I spent most of my time...

:02:58
wishing I had
seven brothers and sisters.
