What you do in your house is worth as much as if you did it up in heaven for our Lord God. We should accustom ourselves to think of our position and work as sacred and well-pleasing to God, not on account of the position and work, but on account of the word and faith from which the obedience and the work flow. ~ Martin Luther

While you've been gone...

I bought myself cheery flowers

(you see why I had to...)

We've done schoolwork

Paradise Lost, readings and lectures.  With a side of crochet.

freshly washed sheets on the bed


Nighttime reading


Daytime reading



Glupper night seemed emptier.  But still, no leftovers by the end!


Moses complained that the girls always get mail but he gives drawings to people all the time yet he never gets mail himself.  I gave him the parental encouragement to be happy for others and joyful in giving without receiving.  And then a few days later I wrote him a long story-letter and put it in the mail for him.  Ineke read it to him.

And I swooned at the cuteness of them both.

more bone broth

more cheesemaking

ALWAYS cheesemaking

We went on walks:




I got a 99c dress from the thrift store. Off brand, on sale muck boots complete the look.







Moses needs a hair cut even more.




AAAANNNNNDDDDD

we had a field trip with friends:


Zeke peeks
















Piper, Luci and Ransom say hello

and so does Mallory, eventually.  ;-)

We can't wait to see you again!  Come home already!!!
