Holy cow, the wife looks hardly 25 years old. They really popped kids out back to back in them days. I guess it's true you just believed in the Lord, had a bunch of young'uns, and hoped and prayed to Jesus Christ at least one of them made it to adulthood. Contrast that to the middle class lifestyle of many Americans just a little more than a decade later and it becomes even more of a mind-blower.
Thats not the wife, the wife probably is in the back of the older teenager girl that you think that is the wife. You can see a foot.
