“With a houseful of kids you give each other strength.” — Michael Landon

Life has been good to me. It's not like I missed an awful lot. I had a pretty good lick here. Every moment gets a little more important.

I've had a good life. Enough happiness, enough success.

I've got nine kids, nine dogs, three grandkids - and one in the oven. And three parrots!

I've fought hard and now I'm weary to the bone.
