OK, my reader's, here is the news you have been waiting for months to hear (er... read) I have a new computer!!!!! Yes, that means more frequent blog's!!!! Clap Clap, Clap, Go David, Go David!!
OK, time to get to it.
Monday night was a bittersweet moment in Television history. It was the end of a five year run for a beloved series about a beloved family. The Kardashian's? No. The Tweed- Simmons? This writer can only pray for that day, but sadly no.
The Roloff's.
If you have never heard of them they are a family of Little People or I dare say, midget's, even though that is a phrase frowned upon if you are a little person.
The Roloff's are a family of six living on a thirty-plus acre farm in the state of Oregon. The husband & wife of Matt and Amy and their four children, two of them twins and the other two average height.
One of the twins, Jeremy, is average height while his twin brother, Zachary, is little.
If you can call it a reality show, it doesn't have the look of one. It shows average parents raising their kids while going through the everyday struggles of life
I guess one of the things that drew me to the show was the dad, Matthew. He has overcame alot of obstacles to get where he is today.
In the late 1990's he wrote a best selling book called "Against Tall Odds". It has to be one the most intriguing and inspiring books I have ever read
About two years ago the Roloff's were guest on the Oprah Winfrey show and one of the questions asked was how long would their show, "Little People, Big World" last. I think it was the wife, Amy who said that they really didn't know. If anybody in her family, including her self said 'ok, that's it', it was over.
Who ever made the decision, doesn't really matter. All good things must come to an end at some point. God Bless You, Matt, Amy, Jeremy,Zach, Molly and Jacob.
May God bless your future endeavor's
A LPBW fan
