Rural Living

While we know that the Lord brought us to the big city for a season and a purpose, we are thankful that He has provided an opportunity to study language with dedication and focus in a country town that we adore!

Sweet Tea is sold by the gallon.  Southern accents are lovingly drawn out, and make my daughters giggle.  This is the home of Cabbage Patch Dolls' Baby Land General Hospital-I still have mine, her name is Carmen Nadine)  The public librarians are sweet, kind, make eye contact and are glad you're there!

 

We are thrilled that the Lord has blessed us with this time of country living. 

Woods all around, a roaring fire to keep us warm and  10 laying hens clucking as we study French!

The downed trees make my boy sharpen his ax with intention and purpose. Squirrels are the size of cats!  There's a tractor parked on the high school office lawn. Scottish Highlanders.  A water wheel.  Chickens galore, dairy cows and so much more... The Lord has been so good, and it makes us smile ear-to-ear!!
