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.

Spokane Symphony and Chorale at the Fox Theater

Steve and I attended our first ever symphony concert together last night.  We went to see three pieces by Mozart performed, including a Requiem.  It was breathtaking and beautiful - hard to drive through downtown after sitting enraptured by music for two hours.  It was amazing how Mozart made the choral voices sound like an instrument, I believe this is possibly because he uses few words which are repeated.  Lots of words tend to muddy the music (especially twaddle words which seem to comprise so much of the contemporary music).

Anyway, it was funny when the older woman next to me started snoring... that's it for now, need to get ready for church.
