I just love my county. I love America.  I drive across it regularly. It and all its people are truly moving to me.  A beautiful place.

Another baby goat, born on the coldest day of the year, I think!

Everyday When You're Walking Down the Street

Arthur, although not a perfect show, has been a staple along with afternoon snacktime for years. It looks like there is less and less interest, (in Arthur, not snacks) another milestone. There is just something comforting about this little routine that is coming to an end after 8 kids and so many years. DD 15 still watches Arthur I think to appease me, which is sweet, sad, and funny. It is just one of those things, it doesn't really matter in the big picture. Oh well, time keeps movin on.....

Trying to get inspiration

to write.....but this seems to be a hard time/ season for me as a (homeschool) mom.  A lot is always going on though!  I am not sure what direction to take.  Reality has set in and we are past the cute, cuddly stage.

The biggest change is that we had our ds graduate, find a job, and leave home.  This makes two gone now.  This really knocks the wind out of me as a mom.  So,  if anyone is reading, stay tuned.  Hopefully I will get back to sharing.  Thanks for reading.
