About Me

I am the mother of nine children, from eighteen to two who truly loves being "hereathome". Some days are beautiful, some days I count the hours until bedtime but I am very thankful to be able to live the life I do.

I have been tagged!  And I have been neglecting my blog for so long....eek. 


1.  What is your favorite bible verse?

So many, but I think for now I will go with Jeremiah 17:7....Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is.

2.  What season of the year is your favorite?  Why?

I love autumn.  The leaves, the golden-ness of it, the pumpkins, apples, the whole idea of harvest time.  The cool nip in the air, wearing sweaters and snuggling down into them, but not really being cold yet.  The baking...smells of pumpkin, cinnamon, apples.  The idea that the holidays are right around the corner with all of their meaning, and warmth.  I still have not gotten over the school mentality that fall is about new beginnings, new opportunities.  Everything feels new and possible and exciting to me in the fall. 


3.  Do you think homeschooling will continue to grow?

Yes, though sometimes I worry when I listen too much to politicians. 



4.  List 4 people that have most influenced your life.

My two grandmothers, my history professor in college, my husband

5.  What is your favorite non-biblical quote?

I discovered books and kept reading.  John Adams (though that is mostly because of reading his biography and knowing how far his efforts at self-education took him)



6.  Silk, satin, or cotton?

cotton.  I am a simple girl.


7. If you like chocolate, which is your favorite?

If I like chocolate?  Ha.   Anything I can get my hands on. 
8.  If you could sit at dinner with 5 people, who would they be?

well, my family would be out because they are too many of them to fit the list.  I am guessing this means famous or accomplished people outside my usual circle?  John Adams, Mother Theresa, Gordon B. Hinckley, John Denver and Abigail Adams.  That was hard!


9.  What is your favorite author?

Oh, heck.  Just one.  Man.  I have to go with AA Milne....Winne the Pooh. 



10.  Who will you tag?

Halfingerhorses, YahwehisAlmighty, Jenn7kids  and....just wait and see!
