small wonders: February 2014
http://small-wonders.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 18, 2014. Other things: We saw a huge great grey owl on our driveway the other day- such magic to watch it swoop from tree to tree. There have been a lot more sick bugs in the house this year than in past years- nothing serious, but enough to throw things off the rails a bit. Listening to lots of stories on tape- A Mouse Called Wolf. Was enjoyed this weekend. Dorian has almost memorized some of Jill Tomlinson. Willa is such a wonder- gosh we enjoy this baby girl! Curriculum with our kin...

howling wolf: May 2013
http://howlingwolffarm.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Mama's learning to follow her heart. Wednesday, May 29, 2013. A week ago I dumped and mixed 45 pounds of seed in my trusty, rusty old wheelbarrow. A veritable mountain of dreams took shape in the gaping maw of that rickety work horse. The dream of a pasture of our own took shape right before my eyes. Now I look on in hopeful wonder and watch carefully as the tiny green sprouts rooted in passion reach for the light. Saturday, May 25, 2013. And honestly, I've no right to be.

small wonders: April 2014

Wednesday, April 09, 2014. Feeding our Families April. End of winter cooking. I have been having a hard time thinking of what to write for this series, as I often find the act of feeding my family to be a little less inspired at this time of year. Of course I do it, and we are all eating well enough, but late winter is just a hard time to be in the kitchen for me. The root cellar veggies are dwindling (and wrinkling! Plan (a little,). Sunday- pizza or burgers or soup or whatever. When I am feeling uninsp...

howling wolf: When darkness settles in
http://howlingwolffarm.blogspot.com/2014/01/when-darkness-settles-in.html
Mama's learning to follow her heart. Friday, January 10, 2014. When darkness settles in. My goodness, it's been grey here the last few days. So dark that it seems the light never changes from the low light of early morning. It just sort of stays that way all day long into the low light of nearly-dark. So, what have we been doing in such conditions? There have been some kitchen trike shenanigans. Some hunting for forest treasures. Some planning and dreaming. That's the pasture at mid-day! Nice to meet you!

Mama's learning to follow her heart. Wednesday, April 24, 2013. We got the tractor and tiller here again today, to do second and final till. Steve frantically spread the second round of amendments for me the morning that he left for India! And, I got a last minute delivery of about 12 yards of manure this morning and dumped them into the new garden area. Spread it with the tractor while it was here. I wish I could’ve gotten more, but that was about all I could swing for now. But, not anymore. The big kid...

howling wolf: The gift I didn't know I needed
http://howlingwolffarm.blogspot.com/2014/01/the-gift-i-didnt-know-i-needed.html
Mama's learning to follow her heart. Thursday, January 23, 2014. The gift I didn't know I needed. Does it ever happen that something comes to you that so deeply fills you up, and you didn't even know that particular hole was there, needing to be filled? Well, that just happened to me! My amazing mother-in-law (whose birthday it happens to be today. happy birthday Aurora! Fabulous and intuitive woman that she is, sent me a giant box of roving for my birthday. I had no idea how much I needed that! So, plea...

Mama's learning to follow her heart. Wednesday, February 13, 2013. What we've been up to. Just a quick photo update. As many forest walks as we can get in breaks between rains. Working, working, working to get the new pasture area ready to be seeded. My first awesome date night out with my big kids since Jade was born. Little man helping with the pasture project. The early morning when the sun is still below the clouds. You gotta take it when you can get it! Burning brush from the pasture project. I am a...

Mama's learning to follow her heart. Friday, January 18, 2013. Over on Soulemama, the weekly "this moment" post is a sweet ritual that I have never taken part in. However, this week I feel quite moved to share a single photo that captures a moment I wish to remember forever. Friday, January 11, 2013. We are off to a good start this year. We decided that after a year of falling way behind on projects around here, we'd hit the ground running in 2013. And, so far, we have! We are finally doing it! Once he d...
