Last year I received one of my all time favorite gifts from my kids; the book "Large Family Mothering".  So many of the things in it were already part of my life, but it is so encouraging to read another mother's tips and helps.  Plus, I can always find new things I need to be doing, or be reminded to get back on track with some things that I have let slip. This book was refreshing because it

I wish I could write well what is in my heart. I wish that I could tell you the way Mrs. Robin does what my world means because of Jessica, Rachel and Erin. I don't have that gift. I can write and I can give you a glimpse of my world, but I cannot make your heart leap the way mine does when I see my girls. Jessica's birthday quietly slipped by in the midst of parenting 16 children. A

This is my new family.  We adopted 8 more kids this week.  For now anyway.  Their mommy needed some pretty serious surgery, and my family has been blessed beyond measure to have the Smith Family in our home. If I could choose 8 kids to adopt into my family, it would be these kids.  We have older girls with my older girls,  middle girls for my middle ones and lots of little boys for my boys.  And

These are my Crazy Daisies.  My husband has nicknamed them Crazy's Daisies - no further explanation needed.  I love them.  They grow wild and free and multiply like, well, like crazy.  Hmmmm. They are there growing and pretty and green almost all year.  They are good to have when everything is in the bleak of winter because they are a promise of beauty to come.  They need care and love and then

For You formed my inner most parts; You formed me in my mother's womb. Psalm 139:13 Twelve years ago today, we heard the wonderful NEW words, "It's a boy!" From that moment on everything changed. Rescue Heroes and weapons, Bob the Builder and trains, Star Wars and Lincoln Logs had entered our world. Still the Biggest change was LEGOS. For every Lego block I see (or step on) I am

There are moments where you catch your breath with the love you feel for someone.  When I see him slow his steps to walk with Michael and tell him about tools.  Michael will not remember tools, but he will hold the memory of tool talks - moments where his daddy slowed his pace to tell him a little about the world.  We have months where the sameness of who we are together crowds in.  As if I have

"I am privileged to have had her sit at my table for 18 years." I overheard a mother speak this of her daughter the other night at a friend's graduation party. I thought it was the most beautiful way one mother could describe life with her child.I am privileged to have 8 that I hope will sit at my table for years and years to come. I hope I am privileged to have them bring their children and

"The most extraordinary thing in the world is an ordinary man and an ordinary woman and their ordinary children." I think this quotation from G.K. Chesterton describes the Tom Lee family more than anything I could say.This was a man who lived and worked and just loved his family and loved his Lord.We love them for who you were and for who they are. We know that some of them are so young that we

"The most extraordinary thing in the world is an ordinary man and an ordinary woman and their ordinary children." G.K. ChestertonI have seen a lot of extraordinary people in the last few days.Extraordinary men and women were the ones who walked through piles of rubble for their friends. The extraordinary are the ones who picked up china plates that survived a tornado where a father did not.

3.14 = Pi Day!!!An irrational numberThe Guinness-recognized record for remembered digits of π is 67,890 digits, held by Lu Chau , a 24-year-old graduate student from China. It took him 24 hours and 4 minutes to recite to the 67,890th decimal place of π without an error.Open Question: Is it a normal number?It is a GREAT excuse to make a pie - which I did!!!!

My dear Mother decided to give it a try...After a time of listening to three little people in our house have a dispute, my Mother decided this would be a great time to impart wisdom in story form to these young sinners.Mommy: Guys, do y'all know what

January 15th is a great day to have a baby especially on January 14th! It, however, does not seem to be a great time to have a birthday once you are a kid.Sarah has been extremely sick on 3 of birthdays, and when you are only 7 that is quite a high percentage. This year Sarah has the tried and true flu. You know the one with 103 fever, headache, backache and chills. She has been a trooper and

My family is experiencing a new epoch right now. We have lost the first of our pets (at least any that they remember and are close to). I joke about all our pets and getting rid of them (we have 8 of them too), but everyone knows it is a joke.

There is much to be learned from a dog... love without reason, loyalty without question, serving with out complaint, trust you with their lives.They go where you go and they sit where you sit. And sometimes you get the feeling they would cry with you if you could. God gave us dogs as true companions. They will come to you and sit. They don't ask or tell you to be quiet, they just sit.Soft fur,

This past Saturday Super Dad and Ryan headed out to a friend of a friend's farm and loaded up with a big load of horse manure for our garden. This all natural fertilizer is wonderful for the garden as it composts leaving behind all the nutrients our baby plants will need in the year to come. Sure, it doesn't sound that fun. But, it is one step forward to delicious and homegrown food. We

Today we are canning Sweet Pickles. Tomorrow, I think, we are canning Dill.Next week... salsa and tomato sauce!!!Canning is hard, hot, and WELL WORTH IT!!! When you can your own food it is so good.Note that while canning we tried to do chemistry and physical science, but it didn't work. We gave it up so we can laugh and fellowship with my favorite people in the world... my family!

I promise we have been working on the garden this year!! Our okra is producing, the zinnias are beautiful, and the pepper plants have lost their mind!!However, I do have a question. Does anyone have advice on carrots? What do they like to grow in? And when are they through? This was my first year to get my carrots to grow, but we let them go a little to long for fear of picking to early. How can

Let's face it, we Christians spend an inordinate amount of time trying to figure out this modesty issue only to have it blow up in our faces when Renaissance art study rolls around.Whether you are classical or a Charlotte Mason purist or a free bird calling yourself an unschooler, that art work is hiding out there waiting for you to deal with it.Personally, I would rather take a walk on the beach

Have you ever noticed that everyone's life looks so wonderful through her blog posts? Sometimes I read blogs and think, "Wow she is incredible. Her family is perfect and she does creative things with them all day long." We must remember that life is not always as easy as it looks on the blog. Most of the time whether on blogs or in photo albums, we record the best parts of our lives. Two

Shhh Emily is talking. That is what I have to say about Emily. In a family of 10, you really find that you take the one quiet child for granted. When she finally talks, we have to quiet the whole family to listen.Emily is a joy to be around. She has always been so much fun and such a sweet blessing from the Lord. Emily is one who epitomizes still water runs deep. When you take time to sit

How can a mother ever explain the love she has for the child who made her a mother? I can remember when Jessica was born and this incredible love that just swept over me. All the feminists of the world have lied when they tell a generation of women that any moment in a career can be better than the moment you and your husband bring a living soul into this world.To say I had zero idea what I was

Yes, I have 6 daughters, and they are most eager that I write about each of them. Up now, I have Rachel - Erin's twin (by birth only). Rachel is my second born, and many say she is the only one that looks like her mother! Sorry Rach! Erin and she are the most different of any of our kids.Rachel is definitely her own person. She goes in to the craft room and whips up a skirt which she

Well, Shiloh guessed Pi day. However I did have one inquiry from someone so here goes.The reduced (greatly reduced!) decimal version of Pi is 3.14. Therefore, March 14 is Pi day... 3/14Some friends of ours form church celebrate by making a Pi (This year it was rhubarb, which is actually VERY good) and their kids write the decimal equation of Pi down the middle of the road as far as they can.

It seems that all my friends are writing about their wonderful daughters; and since I have six incredible daughters, I felt that they need to know how great I think they are.I have decided to start with Erin because she is the one who said, I wish my mom would write about how great we are when she read about Taylor.Erin, Maestro, as she likes to be called, is the "music" girl of the family.

It looks like a lot of writing but bear with me it's worth it.Mommy said:"Erin will you make bread?"I say "Sure!"I go inside and set to work well whilst making the bread and grinding the wheat I say to myself{I say things to myself a lot}"What would happen if I took the wheat berries and but them and some water in the glass

Where your tall green plants where but a short time before there is merely soil. Dirt. Nothing. But beneath the crust of the cold soil, it is not quite as dead as you think. Of course the plants are dead, but the earthworms, the bugs, and the bacteria are alive and

You hear a story like this!Read the following story from our friend Dixie Farm girl and pray for her and her family. Have you noticed that when ever life starts looking really tough and scary God sends a story like this. And your problems pale in comparision to others struggles.
