I strive to be a good help meet to Steve and good mother to my 18 children. We have been blessed with children both by birth and adoption. Our adopted children have all come with some challenges and as such our life is not easy but God never promised it would be. We hope to be sanctified daily. We are passionate about education that gives people of all ages a love of learning. We are also passionate about good food, food the way God intended it to be eaten and as such are working at establishing our sustainable farm to provide for ourselves and our community.

House plans

Unfortunately I have some sort of stomach virus so I spent the day resting yesterday and looking at house plans.  We have come across a new real estate listing - a beautiful farm that is for sale (we drove by on Friday).  The existing farm house is very small and could be fixed up as a guest house/older children house.  The land is half pasture, half woods and has a meandering creek.  The price is excellent.  So, we are considering building a house.  The thought is very scary as I have not heard good things about the building process.  I will continue to research, including a cedar home company and panelized building systems.  More on this to come I am sure.

I also finished Feminine Appeal this past weekend.  The book was good, a simple read, with many parts highlighted in my copy.  I have begun reading, "Fields Without Dreams" by Victor Davis Hanson.  Will comment more as I get further into the book.
