Introduction

I am writing this as a way to keep track of my day to day happenings. I hope to meet some new people through this also.

As to who I am, I have been married to my highschool sweetheart for twenty years now. I am more in love every day. God has surely blessed me with this man.

I have seven beautiful children. My oldest is 14 and my youngest 1.5. I have three boys and four girls and would not object ot having more. But then again, I would not object to not having more either. At this point of life, I am content either way.

I am a firm believer in homeschooling. Simply put, NO ONE can love my children as much as I can and NO ONE can give them a better education.

Oh, someone else could probably pound more pure facts into their skulls, but life isn't about facts. It is about relationships. NO ONE can teach them this as well as I can. (By the way, academics ARE important too. My 14yo reads at a near college level, and my 8yo leads the reading in church from a King James Bible with the 10yo right between them. My 6yo reads at around 2nd grade level and my 4yo is fast gaining on 1st grade. If a child can read, they can learn anything.)

I love animals and want to be a farmer when I grow up (in heaven?) In the mean time, God has place a very different call on my life that I am not reall ready to go public with yet.

Thank you so much for commenting! I love to talk to my readers.

I do ask that there be no anonymous commenters, though. If I am brave enough to put my name on this blog, you should be too:-)

Please keep it civil. Remember we are all human and make mistakes, and that since we can't see each other's faces or hear each other's tone of voice, it is very hard to get the emotion in what we are saying each other. Use lots of emoticons! :-) And show grace and love to each other.
