Leonoranamenni is a mother with exceptional strength and boundless love for her children, well known for her astounding tale. In April 2011, she made history by becoming the mother of her 20th child, garnering her well-deserved praise. But it was just the beginning; a few years later, Leonora astonished everyone once more by giving birth to her 21st child.
Leonora Janosz married in 1989, which marked the beginning of this incredible adventure. Since then, they’ve made a life together and lovingly cared for their numerous children. Despite the hefty prices, they live in a two-story house with ample space for all of the family members. For her, the children have always come first.
The eldest son is now married and lives on his own, while the other 20 children continue to live at home.” It was quite challenging at first, especially in the early years. Leonora recalls, “When my first child was born, I never imagined having so many children.” She recalls that there were no diapers back then, so she had to hand wash them.
Everything gradually became easier. The older children began taking care of the smaller ones. Life in a large family needs a lot of dedication, but Leonora and Janosz stick to their traditions. They make between 5 and 6 kg of food for each meal.
Despite the high expense of food, the family has adapted to this way of life. Leonora hopes to build multiple houses for her children so that they may each have their place when they grow up.
