Friday on the Farm ~ My Crazy Life
I am pretty sure reality TV shows are birthed out of lives like mine. Over the last four years we have gutted and remodeled a huge portion of our farmhouse, graduated three children from homeschool, became foster parents to four children under 2 years old, started a daycare to continue care for two of these kiddos and expanded the daycare to include others that are in our care still today. All the while keeping up with our small farm, Hubby's day job changing and growing and his radio ministry continuing. Crazy. There really is no other word that explains it better. Somewhere along the way I lost parts of myself that I truly love. Simple things like baking and cooking, making things, crocheting and knitting, even my spinning of yarn from our animals became tedious because there was always something else. God has a way of answering prayers in the least likely of ways. Yup, that is a lock box. Yup, we're selling the farm. In the last 6 weeks we spotted a lake house for sale ...
I love looking at the pictures of your farm and family! :) That scarf is just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteHi Renee! I love your blog! I really enjoyed speaking with you at the event on Saturday and I look forward to keeping up with you on your blog. I've already talked with hubs about getting rabbits, he seemed pretty open to the idea. I'm hoping this spring I can get some. I love adding to our little homestead. I'd love for you to follow my blog too. At least check it out. http://meg-silverthorn.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteBTW, I love your homeschooling sign about the village. My son isnt homeschooled but he goes to a very small private school at our church because I too have seen the village and don't want it raising my children.
