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.

Meet Mr. Smith/Farm Hunting

Today is a holiday (President's Day) so everyone except Lucas is still asleep,  he is taking one of his online classes.  Anyway, I just wanted to quickly post how much I am enjoying the book, "Meet Mr. Smith" by Eric and Leslie Ludy.  Eric's writings about purity and holiness are wonderful and told in such an engaging manner.  His Ellerslie School of Honor looks excellent - I would love to see some of our boys attend this training in the future.

Steve and I will be looking at an Amish farm today for sale.  In addition we will hopefully be driving by two others (non Amish, but farms) that we will be looking at inside tomorrow but as I am afraid it will be dark then, a drive by the land today should give us an idea for a comparison.

I am continuing to work on some sewing projects, ordered a surprise "outfit in the making" for Linda - hope she will like it.

Finally, I am excited that Steve has signed me up for Western Conservatory's, "Evenings with Victoria" - an online mentoring session with Victoria Botkin.  Her two daughters are my inspiration for what I hope my little girls will become.  Their book, "So Much More" and video, "Return of The Daughters" are life changing.

Well, Little Miss Hannah just woke up so blogging time is done...
