Camille and Mike Geraldi are married and live with their children near Miami, Florida in the U.S.A. Mike is a doctor. Camille is a housewife and former nurse. They sound like an average family. In some ways they are, but in many ways they are not.
Tile average family in the U.S. has two or three children. The Geraldis have seventeen children. That is not all. Fifteen of these seventeen children are adopted children between the ages of one and nine. Each of the adopted children has a severe physical or mental disability (丧失能力).
A day with the Geraldi family is not average. Camille wakes up before dawn. She and three helpers wake, wash, dress, and feed the seventeen children. After breakfast, eleven of the children go to special schools. At 7:30, Camille takes a nap for two hours. When she wakes up at 9:30, she feeds and plays with the children. Camille cooks dinner before Mike comes home from work. Mike cleans up after dinner.
Camille is busy even at night. She often wakes up to take care of the children who need her. She almost never has a full night’s sleep.
Camille and Mike try to plan time for each other. Every Wednesday, they have a lunch "date" and every other Saturday, they go away by themselves for the day.
Camille says, "It fulfills me to help these children. It makes our life full." Camille loves her life. She looks at other people and thinks, "What a dull life they have."
In many ways, the Geraldis are not an average family. However, in some ways, they are. Like most families, they laugh and cry together and love each other a lot.
