The Family

The children are doing very well. Uriah, Ja-el, and Acacia have each recently shown themselves to be accomplished swimmers with an endless desire to test their skills against their friends, the Hampton kids.

Also with the inclusion of chickens to our family food plan our kids have discovered how much work and fun birds can be. We cannot get chicken locally so we have started raising them. Ja-el has discovered efficient ways of feeding the creatures and really loves doing it. Miriam loves the creatures and will not put them down. Silas just tries his hardest to keep up with the others and is always trying to figure out how everything works.

Rachel is doing a fine job of homeschooling our older three and caring for the logistics of a very busy home. Eddie has been running like crazy running a station, overseeing mechanics, and trying to equip our elders for the days ahead among other responsibilities.
