NORWICH, Kan. (AP) Imagine having to celebrate the birthdays of six children in the same day.
Sondra and Eldon Headrick of Norwich face that task Friday, and they couldn’t be happier about it.
The Headricks’ sextuplets three girls and three boys turn 10 Friday. Ethan, Melissa, Grant, Sean, Jaycie and Danielle were born April 6, 2002, after Sondra underwent fertility treatments to try and have a sibling for the couple’s first child, Aubrianna.
After 10 years of too much laundry and not enough sleep, the Headricks say their life functions as an “organized chaos.”
The Wichita Eagle reports the next challenge is paying for braces for all seven of their children.
The couple says they are grateful the children are healthy and have developed their own personalities.
