Needing Some Pointers
I want to ask all of you a question today. How do you organize your teen’s chores? Do you have a system or do you verbally tell them what needs to be done? How do you give them an overall experience of cleaning all aspects of a home? Right now we do not have anything in place. Serenity, who is 16, usually helps with supper, wipes down counters after meals and on Friday’s helps with the weekly blessing. If you have an idea or opinion, I would love it if you commented.

2013 EXPO Show & Sale
The EXPO show and sale is over. The kids had a lot of fun and placed well in their classes. Justus Wallace – pig farmer 🙂 After the confirmation class, where Justus placed 1st in the Yorkshire division, Whitey went back to his pen and stretched himself out with his head in the food bowl. I guess he was wore out. It must be hard work being a prize pig. 🙂 Audrey zipped around on her bike for 3 days. I was so proud of Serenity. With her being on the shy side, she has had to work on this. This year she went into the ring exhibiting confidence.…
