I have exciting news for my 250th post!
(Sorry, it's not about Aoife-- we still do not have any baby lambs. But if Aoife has lambs on Friday, March 6th, they will share the same birthday as Una!)
Our exciting news is that we have decided NOT to renew our rental lease on this farm. The timing is right for us to move toward "greener pastures", as the ole' farmer's like to say.
Where are we going? Well... we are not sure yet. We tried to buy a foreclosure farm, but that fell through. At first, I was very sad but now I see that living on that farm just wasn't right for our family. And as it turns out, living here just doesn't feel right anymore either. We are hoping God blesses us with another accepted offer on a new property (maybe that country bungalow built in 1919)... and that this sale goes through without a hitch. Please say a five second pray for us to find a peaceful, warm and lovely place to live with our two sons, four sheep, 11 chickens and new baby lambs. I'm praying for patience, faith and more patience!
I'm back to being a very "wary farmwife" as I have absolutely NO idea where we will be living in June... but I trust that God is good...(just as fresh eggs!)

PS: Thank you to all my faithful readers, especially Mimi, Mima and Karina! I love you all!
Trying out something new. A new way of living. A more simple life. One farmer. One farmer's wife. Two boys. Two rams. Six ewes. Two goats. Two pigs. Three rescue kittens. Nine hens. Two bee hives. Room to roam. Room to get dirty. Room to grow in mid-west soil. A wary farm wife because this is a new life for our family. But God is good and so are fresh eggs.
