Sep. 22, 2007 - Putting Up Corn

I got about 8 doz. plus ears of corn and I'm going to be freezing it over the next few evenings. The reason I'm waiting till evening is because we have little bit of summer weather that has crept back in and it too hot to heat up the kitchen.  The plan is to freeze some on the cob and some off the cob and then in the middle of winter we will have some yummy corn to eat!! :0) 

Tomorrow is my dds 16 birthday!! I cannot believe that 16 years flew by so very quickly!! She was born on her due date, how many babies are actually born the natural way on their due date?? Its kind of funny because she was always a punctual child. LOL She is a great kid, really I'm  not just saying that. She has great personality and is pretty comfy with herself. She is very artistic, creative, and definatly has her own sense of style. I often ask her for advice on what I'm wearing, and she lets me know if she approves or not.

She loves the Lord with all her heart and hopes to one day go into missions. She is planning to go on a missions trip this coming summer, but she is not sure where. She is currently praying about it and saving her money, knowing the Lord will certainly open a door. :0)  She is on a Bible Quiz team and though she is dyslexic, she is putting much effort into her memory work. It can be painstakingly hard watching her spend hours trying to memorize a phrase or two, especially when her siblings pick it right up. She is not deterred though, she is determined to do good this year and help the team by doing her part.

My dd is fun to be around. She has a great sense of humor and we laugh a lot!! :0)  She loves shopping, and TJ Maxx is currently her favorite store. She also loves to swing, yes on a real old fashioned swing! :0)  When her dad took down their swing set she was heartbroken and he has since put a bigger swing up for her down in the backyard. She loves to go back there and swing. As she swings she prays, she sings, she studies, ect.... I guess it helps her because she is using both sides of her brain.

It is great to see both my dds play and hang out together. I cannot tell you how many people have commented on how close they are. Some people cannot even believe their sisters because they are so close. Many siblings are seperated during the school day, so they develop their own friends and don't have much to do with their family. I know that homeschooling is not perfect, but this has been one very big blessing!! :0)  Actually, all the kids are close so its kinds cool to see that.

Well, thats it about one of my "babies". Have a blessed day in the Lord and I will visit again with you soon. :0)

Out of my six kiddos, only one was born on his due date ;) all the other's were late.

My oldest just turned nine. I was thinking the other day "Only nine more years, then he will be off to college. Yikes"

Blessings,
Linda<><
