Septuplets’ Family To Have Its Last Peaceful Christmas

Compiled From Wire Services

Twenty-two-month-old Mikayla will be the only McCaughey child opening Christmas presents under the tree this year. Come next December, seven brothers and sisters should be tearing through wrapping paper with her.

The world’s only living set of septuplets - born a month ago to Bobbi and Kenny McCaughey - are thriving in the hospital and are expected to be released late next month.

Mikayla and her mom and dad plan to spend a quiet Christmas morning with Kenny’s parents - Val and Kenneth McCaughey - and Christmas afternoon with Bobbi’s parents - Peggy and Bob Hepworth.
