Kittens question

I have five 13 week old kittens that are very close to each other and love their mother (purr profusely when she is near). They play and sleep together. I would love to keep this family together, but I already have 4 cats including mama.

I'm so hesitant to find homes for the kittens because I don't want them to be unhappy or miss each other, or the mama to miss her kittens. I am planning on keeping one kitten and would like to only give the others away in pairs. I had to break up this happy family. Any advice, comments, suggestions?
