It's working !!



Wow it has been so long since I could update.. For some strange reason out Internet here started blocking all blogs, I could not update nor read anyone else's blog. But I decided to try again and it let me. So since October a lot has changed around here. We still love our new home and all the things we are slowly adding. The boys have started some homeschooling which will get serious in October when they turn 6. Jonathan struggles, it has become more and more evident of the damage done to his brain by his seizures. Which is really hard as a mom to see what all he has lost and may never regain. But I praise the Lord that he is here and mostly healthy. It pains me to know that so much damage has occurred to his brain. The left side which controls education,learning type things is where his seizures occur. So over the last few months we have realized how much he has been affected. But paise be to God that he has been seizure free for over 6 months. At least the "big" ones we can see. I am anxious to know if his brain is still seizuring and we cant see it. We go back in April. Jeremiah is doing great he is so sweet and loves to lend a helping hand anytime ask. And loves to take care of everyone.. Gracie is so funny she keeps us all laughing. But has some serious attitude that gets dealt with daily. She is very strong willed her and Jonathan butt heads on a daily basis. They are all so fun and we are so grateful for them. Matt got a promation at work, which is good because the business is struggling to stay afloat. We are hoping for a building increase soon. We have added a few animals the boys have a pony, and we have 2 calves that I bottle feed 2x a day, praying they both contuie to grow and be healthy, ducks, and a dog. Which we are so thankful for, we started out dog sitting for a fellow who works with Matt and we fell in LOVE with Boone so we asked to keep him and they agreed. He is the sweetest, most obedient do ever and house trained. So he gets to stay in which I love and goes out when we are out. Jonathan and Boone have this awesome relationship they formed a special bond in less than a month. I am praying that boone may start to sense Jonathan seizures. We have heard of dogs doing that if the child forms a bond with the dog. That's alt the new critters for now probably get some chickens in a few weeks once it warms and looking to get a few cattle to raise and sell for beef. Getting ready for Garden season which I look forward to. Here are a couple pics, will try to add more soon. I am thankful this is allowing me to blog again. I hope you all are well. !!

Worst Blogger !!!

I am officially the worst blogger !! Sorry it seems like we have been running and working like crazy since being here. But we are doing great LOVE the house and the land. We had the 3 donkeys, just sold 2 of them to make room for ponies for the boys and a horse for me. We got Buttercup home this week and have been working her and getting her back in the routine of being ridden. She is a light brown color with a blonde main and tail. She is out of practice and needs a little work. But I think she will make a wonderful horse for the boys. And Cupcake is still at the folks we bought them from b/c she runs very fast and is giving us trouble catching her.She is pregnant so a little more scared, so as soon as we can catch her she will come home with us. She is a black and white paint and is Beautiful, cant wait to see her baby. Which will be a mini mule, because she was bred by a mini Donkey. And yesterday we found a tiny kitten in the barn, which appears that the mommy left it. It was starving, so we are feeding it milk with a dropper, hoping it will survive. We all love the farm and all the work. The kids are learning so many lessons and having a fun time as a family workiing together. I will post pics of the last few months int he next post. (soon)

God's Grace

I came across this it is so true and Amazing.. I pray that those of you who read it, that it will be a blessing to you .. And if you don't know Christ that you will seek him and pray until you receive his wonderful gift of Salvation.



When I say that 'I am a Christian', I am not shouting that 'I am clean living.
I'm whispering 'I was lost, but now I'm found and forgiven.'

When I say 'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say 'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on..

When I say 'I am a Christian' I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.

When I say 'I am a Christian' I'm not claiming to be perfect.
My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it.

When I say 'I am a Christian' I still feel the sting of pain.
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.

When I say 'I am a Christian' I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner who received God's good grace, somehow!

Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
Live simply, love generously, care deeply, speak kindly, and leave the rest to God.

Happy Birthday Gracie !!

My baby will turn 2 tomorrow !!! Which makes me very sad, she has grown so fast. Gracie is such a joy and load of fun. She is so silly and makes us all laugh. She has such a personality, very loving and sweet and then very mischievous. The boys adore her ( most of the time ). It does not seem possible that 2 years have passed but I am learning more and more each day to enjoy each minute. Because its all going to be gone before I blink. But to my dear sweet baby girl we love you very much and wish you a Happy Birthday !!!
Enjoy a flash back ..

New house and Summer Fun

We are enjoying the new house.. Getting settled and making it home. We got 3 donkeys which are providing lots of fun and work. Their names are Mac (from Cars) Jeremiahs pick, Bandit Jonathan's pick , and cookies Gracie's pick. They are 3, 1, and 9 months old. Need lots of love and work to get them to trust us.
Jonathan was feeling bad one morning so Jeremiah ( all his own idea) got a box and filled it full of stuffed animals and drew a picture on the box. And had me write " hope this package makes you feel better ".. For Jonathan. So sweet.
There is a sweet elderly lady at church that makes braided rugs so she made me quite a few for the house. Well I can never find them. And you will see why in the pics with Gracie. She loves them drags them from room to room and sits on them at any given time there will be 4 or 5 in her room.
Enjoy the pics. Check back soon we just had some family pics taken and I will post them as soon as I get the cd.
