Mamma Musings

December 15, 2008

As much as I love a newborn, having one around makes me all the more grateful for my two year old. I am glad to discover that even as they grow and change, there is plenty to enjoy and love at every age. As fulfilling as it is to have a little baby dependent on…

Lovely ways to spend a rainy day…

September 27, 2008

1. Sleep in for once, and have snuggle time with husband and two year old for a few more moments before getting up. 2. Dress in a new, green shirt saved for such a cool fall day and take the time to put on a matching headband and favorite necklace. 3. Make and eat your…

Gracious Hospitality

March 3, 2008

Yesterday we attended a bridal shower at our friends, the V—–‘s, home in Buffalo. It was such an enjoyable and refreshing time, and I recorded my impressions of the day in my journal… I love their house! Their home is a perfect extension of who they are. It is so comfortable, and set up with…

Who I am Today

February 6, 2008

Still don’t have our computer set up – the hook up is coming tomorrow – I was mistaken. Thankfully, the laptop is able to pick up a wireless signal if we put it on the kitchen counter on the outside wall closest to our old trailer. So, I am blogging from my kitchen, which I…

A moment of repose

January 29, 2008

I think I will only feel sane if I site down and write for a little bit. Wait – I haven’t had devotions yet! That must be the problem. I slept in this morning till 7:22, and barely had time to get my man out the door with breakfast by 8, much less time to…

Of Forks and Thyme

January 16, 2008

The first few times I ate at a white table-clothed, multiple-fork establishments (as I classify 4 or 5 star restaurants), it was not with family nor close friends, so that may have contributed to the cool and unfamiliar sensations surrounding me. I felt like I was swimming entirely out of my depth, yet in a…

Of Slugs and Sunflowers

August 11, 2007

I’ve had no time to do any creative writing lately, but I found this in one of my old journals last night and thought it would do for this week’s homestead post. This is a memory of going out in the night to fill a bucket at the hand pump so I can flush our…

Smoking Angels

May 30, 2007

How many of our days began like this on the homestead? The morning would be full of promise, but sometime along the way, the task we faced for that day would bring us to the end of our resources, and cause us to cry out to God. The unique and wonderful ways He answered those…

Tipi Tales, Episode 1: The Adventure Begins

May 23, 2007

When I was 13 my family moved to a tipi in upstate New York to homestead. For years I have longed to tell the stories of our adventure on top of a hill in the country, carving out a lifestyle that belonged to another century, but I have never known where to start. What day…
