We have been VERY busy at The House That God Built. My BIL, neiphew, 1ds, 2ds, and friend of the family were putting on the scratch coat of stucco on the top half of the house ! ((happy dance)) I use to wonder why God had us wait so long to build a house but now I know. It was because....my boys were to help and learn how to build a house. God's timing is always ...perfect timing.
.
I also have VERY long awaited prayer answered !!!!!!!!!! ( 3 years of praying on the knees waiting) We are in the process of signing the papers of getting our water easement !!!!!!! (((((((HAPPY DANCE)))))))))). We have come to a agreement with our friendly neighbor and will proceed with starting to put in the permenant water system. I am not sure if it will be totally done this year or will be finished by next year. But we are lining up all the details and workers to get it put in ! I want to thank you ALL who have prayed a lot or a little for us and for those who have followed our journey of The House That God Built. I will have one more project to S&T next Friday that will have been completed. I am not saying we are done in the building but we are moving leaps and bounds right now. Only by the grace of God. Thank you God for everything. Because every thing good is from God. I give Him ALL the glory...Amen.

"If mothers could learn to do for themselves what they do for their children when these are overdone, we should have happier households. Let the mother go out to play!
If she would have the courage to let everything go when life becomes too tense, and just take a day, or half a day, out in the fields, or with a favourite book, or in
a picture gallery looking long and well at just two or three pictures, or in bed, without the children, life would go on far more happily for both children and parents.
The mother would then be able to hold herself in "wise passiveness’ and would not fret her children by continual interference even of hand or eye - she would let them
be." ...Charlotte Mason
