I know. My grandmother raised 6 kids on her own without any type of aid back in the 60's. She worked as a local librarian in a small town in Miss, and the sacrifices they made then are unheard of now. She would make my aunts' and dads clothes herself, handing them down as the kids outgrew them, saving grease to make soap, etc. She sent them all away to college too. I have mad respect for that woman.
