A New Normal

It's been a long while! A short walk down memory lane reminds me that my new normal is nothing like my old ebb and flow. Babies, babies, babies! Wow, we had a string of little people for so many years! I miss those chubby little hands but I'm not sure I would trade it for the joy of having a house full of bigger children. If you are still in the throes of babyland, take courage! It doesn't last forever, and the hardest times will be forgotten due to sleep deprivation. ;-) Just kidding- if you have one or more babies in your house, I honor you for the valuable work you do in the everyday sacrifice of your time, your body, and your energy.

From now on this blog will be the continued story of our efforts to make a beautiful life out of imperfection. Life with a house full of children and a farm is messy. We love creating and producing and exploring, but none of that is neat and tidy (until blessing hour, when we clean it all up at 5pm). I am learning and growing as my children are doing the same, and it's an adventure every day...like it or not. 😅

So glad you dropped by!
