My little life

This was Michael's first time down the water slide at the Ranch on the 4th of July. He was such a good sport. He only stiffed up as he hit the cold water and never cried! We have a winner!

So, at the moment I live in a little town, small little farming town, nonetheless. Not much has changed from home. But now I live in a very cute and small little house. What is fun about this house is that everybody in this little town knows this little house, because they have all lived in it! It is known as the honeymoon shack. It seems to be that it is the home where everybody starts in, gets their feet a little firmer on the ground, right after they have been married, and then move on so someone else can get the experience.

I have a little family. We are all under 5' 8''. :) We have a little boy who is getting very close to crawling, although he is not very fond of the whole "having to be on his belly." Before a couple weeks ago, he was very content on just sitting on his little bum, but now that he has sort of figured out that he can be a little more mobile, he is wanting it a little more.

My husband is very fond of his job. He gets to work beside his dad on the farm. He loves it! More physical labor and less sitting at a table in front of the computer. I sure hope that he can get a job that fulfills that in the future, for we are just part timing it out here. Even though Josh is on the short end, he does not lack the looks or the muscle. He is very proud and very aware that he looks a little different from everyone else because he is such a hunk of muscle. A little thing, well not too little, that I love about him.

A little about me, I am learning a little at a time to be a better wife, mother and student. I am gaining a little more confidence in myself, especially at the sewing machine. I am getting more content and happy with my place in life and am not rushing myself. It just isn't worth the headache or weariness. If you haven't given it a shot, you should try it sometime. Ask yourself if it is worth the stress and rushing? Or if it isn't. 99% of the time, it can wait for me. I love my new found confidence, it is making me a better person.

Until next time
