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.

Psalm One and Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner

Blessed is the man [1]
who walks not in the counsel of the wicked,
nor stands in the way of sinners,
nor sits in the seat of scoffers;
2 but his delight is in the law [2] of the Lord,
and on his law he meditates day and night.

Had a sad talk with one of our adult children who has returned to live with her biological family and it is not going well. She admitted to substance abusing and being completely miserable and greatly missing everyone but because her cousins have told her she "doesnt fit in"culturally with their partying crowd she feels unacceptable and she thinks its much more important to be culturally relevant, drugged and miserable than at odds with the culture, walking a different path, but safe, content and joyful.

On another note, Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner came yesterday....more on that to come...:-)

Happy 4th of July - may we get back to the founders intent for this country - a country where we as individuals are self-governing, choose to do what is right and help our fellow man because the Bible says to do it, not expecting the government to take care of us all.
