Measure Twice, Cut Once

We made a quick trip out to visit Jennifer’s family on the 25 and we had a photo taken to mark the trip, everyone but Sarah was up for it.

God Bless you all.

The Bogart Family

Here is my newest little helper, most of the time you will find her helping herself to a cuddle with her mommy, she will soon be running around with her big sisters.

We also have new kittens on te homestead, looks like Sarah has picked out which one she wants to keep. We are now back home from the city for the winter and we are starting to work on the house again. Our first job will be  to dig a water well and then put a porch on the side of the house.

I have been wanting to post here for some time now on some of the ways in which God has and is changing my life, he has really transformed it. I should have knowing he would do this for he tells us so in the bible, at first I wasn’t sure how he would do it. I now know he makes use of everything and anything to open my eyes to the fact that he loves me and that I love him. One of the ways he is changing me is through my children I think of my girls as Gods little helpers. I believe that God teaches us about himself and how he wants us to live and deal with others around us in much the same way a parent teachs their children. After all God is the first parent and as with all loving parents he loves his children and ours more then we will ever know. I think of God as my Heavenly Father and I long for him to reveal himself to me, and it never ceases to amaze me in all the ways he does it, if only I keep my eye on him. I thank God in Jesus for the little blessings he has given me to parent and to try to be more like Jesus each day, God sets a very good witness, all we have to do is follow.

Welcome to my new blog let me share with you my journey on living on a homestead and raising a family in Christ. Here you will find writings on a number of subjects leading to a simpler and more family based life with Christ at the center.
