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 showing, new class

Today will be a whirl as we have another house showing.  Preparations for house showings usually take up several hours so the morning will be devoted to that, then I will take the kids for a drive and we will read the rest of "The Lonesome Gods" by Louis L'Amour.

I read in the book, "Authentic Beauty" last nigh,t the verse, "Delight yourselves in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart."  I read that verse with a new emphasis yesterday.  All I have to do is concern myself with obeying and pleasing God and the time I spend worrying about other things (right now searching MLS listings for the "perfect house and farm" I should be spending focusing on Him.  I need to let Him bring us the property He wants us to buy..  After all, its His vision we will be fulfilling.  It may be different from ours.  I have to be willing to not be in control (VERY HARD for me...)

Finally, my online class on The Constitution starts tonight.  More on that tomorrow, God willing.
