About Me

Mon
Missouri, United States
Since the creation of this blog, a lot of changes have happened. I have gone back to work and Tim stays home with Ruben, now 2. Makayla, 8, attends school. God continues to make amazing changes in our lives. It may seem odd that Tim stays at home, but God has really shown our family many blessings in this situation. Now we are seeking God's will in our life together. We have a desire to learn to live off the land and get back to the basics. What better than to be able to spend more time with family, then your co-workers. By the way, I do like my co-workers. It's totally God that has put me in my position at work. We are proving that it's possible to live off a one-person (lower) income. It's not that we go without, but our focus has changed. Through all of this we are praying and believing that God will raise up a ministry for us so that we can share the gospel of Jesus with others. I enjoy knitting and reading non-fiction when I find a good book. I am still searching for new ways to save money, but I don't have near the time anymore. I hope you enjoy this blog and find some helpful and good ideas to use. Please leave comments!
