Ruth's Story

June 5, 2011............Updating my life. Much has changed since I was on this cite last. All 5 of our children are grown and all are married but one. The "baby" was married a year ago and my husband and I wondered what we were going to do with ourselves being empty nesters. We were married over 26 yrs ago with a houseful of children. He had 1 and I had 4....6 months later we found out "ours" was on the way, suprise!! My step-son came in and out but we raised 5 all the way to adult hood. It would sadden me if it weren't for our 7 grandchildren. Oh my..how much I love those children, and when we get worn out they get to go home....oh and lets not forget the joys of grandparents filling the children up with sweets and sending them home....LOL We still live on the farm. Owned it for 21yrs. Still have the cows...but now we've invested in "miniature" cows. They're of the Dexter variety if you want to look them up on the internet. One is due to calf any day now. We still have our chickens, about 20 of them, if anyone wishes ...Expand for more
to buy free range eggs we have em. A month ago a 13yr old boy came to live with us. Long story. He'll be with us till his parents get their acts together. Our church thought we'd be a good influence but really I think he's been good for us. We can't be "old" with a young man around. I found myself playing basketball with him this afternoon. whew!! Not for long, LOL my husband has more energy then I do. Took a trip out to AZ in April to visit our youngest son and his wife. He's in the military stationed down there. Saw the Grand Canyon for the first time. TOOK MY BREADTH AWAY!! The hanywork of God has always awed me but He did some mighty fine work in AZ. Well, I could probably say more but it's getting late and i don't type like I used to. But I do want to say that God has blessed us so much. There really isn't anything to complain about though I do find things occassionaly...I guess it comes with age. Jesus is our God, Lord and provider and to him we bow our knee. Good night to all and God bless.....every one.
