The Personalaties of each of the kids......

Ok, well, I posted on the other thread but didn't tell you anything... Like I said, this is according to the book. From what I can remember (in age order):

Lea Anne is the oldest, and to some extent helped her mother raise her brothers and sisters, she later left home and became a nurse

Then there's Dick and Bub, who I think were very much into baseball

Rog is sort of frustrated, due to the town being so small perhaps - results in a few run in's with the law, hehe - but he's a really good kid really

Bruce is really sweet, and from what I remember, probably the quietest of them all, his primary concern always seems to be his mother.

Tuff (real name Terry) is the second oldest girl and followed a long line of boys. Her nickname refers to her being stronger than the local kids, including the boys, enabling her to defend her siblings. She's a bit of a tomboy and likes baseball as much as any of the boys in the family.

Mike likes to experiment, which causes a fair amount of accidents, but he's just a really curious kid, his was one of the personalities which most stood out to me :)

Barb and Betsy are the youngest 2 girls and I just remember them being really sweet, with their own little quirks

Dave is the youngest of all the children, and a little mischevious(sp?) but only in the way small children are, and with good intentions :)

Most of all, they ALL, quite rightly, adore and idolise their mother, and would do anything for her. It's really hard to explain, but they are the most incredible bunch of children, all adorable or endearing in their own way. I hope that helped :)
