Heading Into Winter
It’s been awhile since we’ve had a general update here from the farm, so here you go! As winter approaches our family is settling in for the long cold. Already temperatures are dipping to 16 below celcius. Hmm, how do I get one of those degree symbols here on my blog? Ah well. Our late fall efforts to dig our own well have been put on hold until the Spring. Sadly, the motor kept getting iced up, pipe was breaking, glue was failing to set. Well drilling is really a warm weather sport. Currently we’re suffering from a wee bit of a bug. Hopefully after the sick situation settles down we’ll be celebrating Rose’s weaning with a party for her! She’s been weaned for approximately two weeks – she’s a big girl now and so looking forward to her special celebration. Remember when Abraham had a feast for Isaac when he weaned (Check Genesis for details)? Yep, that’s where our family tradition stems from. Her exuberance is so sweet, and weaning has been easier for her than I thought, I’m so proud of her

What a great idea about the weaning party! When my 19 month old is ready, we will do that!
