Happy family~

Baker is a baseball coach, and Mrs. Baker is a housewife and writer. They have raised twelve children in total. I can’t imagine what I would do if I had so many children... I really like the Baker couple’s way of education, creating a happy and passionate family, and never restraining the children’s nature and creativity force. When Baker got his dream job, the family came to the city home and left the place where these children had not left since they were young. When Mrs. Baker went out, Baker thought he could take care of these children smoothly, but the children who left their hometown were even more rebellious and lawless. Later, Baker fell into a dilemma between career and family. He thought of a way to bring the team home to train, but failed to take care of both. Both career and family were affected. In the end, he gave up his dream. , To embrace another dream~ Stay with your family. What is impressive is that one of the twelve children not only ignores and even despises himself by other brothers and sisters in the family, but is also always bullied outside; and when his brothers and sisters find out who is bullying him, They will come forward desperately. Finally, when his frog died, he broke out and took the frog on the train back to his hometown. The boy’s disappearance awakened the cohesion and love of a family. When Baker appeared in front of his son, the son knew that although the frog was dead, the family’s love for him had returned, and the family would love each other even more in the future.
