I have started reading a new blog. The name is cop mama and on Mondays she does mama guilt.
This week I am having lots of mama guilt. For years my 9 year old has wanted to learn to sew. When I was in the hospital my MIL taught her some basics. I could not thread a needle. Last week the ladies of my homeschool group bought me a sewing machine and I have already spent one night at a friends house learning to use it and made 3 skirts. Everyday Faith says can you teach me to sew and every day I say not until after we move. I should so teach her to sew.
Petrie Soaps and Stuff

My Hero
Rob and I have been married 15 years. He is my hero. Rob is a Warrant Officer in the army. I so look up to this man. He is brilliant. I could not ask for a better husband or father. He is the spiritual leader of our family. I am so blessed to have this man in my life and thank God for him daily.
Michael
Michael is almost 20 years old. No longer my little boy who needs mom to make his PB&J. He is currently a student at Pensacola Bible College studying to be a Evangelist. He still enjoys video games and hanging out with friends.
Faith
Faith is my beautiful 16 year old. She teaches me daily how to love myself and others. She loves to help with the little kids She loves to sing and dance and would not be caught in public without make up and jewelry. Faith is Faith, she does not try to impress anyone
Hope
Hope is my fiesty 14 year old. Hope loves anything that has to do with animals. She is happiest when she is outside with the goats and chickens. She loves to help in the church nursery. She is as tall as her momma and still growing.
Grace
Grace is 11 years old and is my special blessing. Grace was born at 2.12 pounds and was in a hurry to get here. She has been non stop since then. She loves being the baby and makes sure everyone knows it
Jason
Jason is 8 . His favorite things to do are to help me clean up and to eat. If you ask him what he wants to do he says I want to go grocery shopping.
James
James is and a joy to be around. He loves to snuggle and be told that he is doing something right.
Jacob
My precious newest blessing. Born September.
A.C.U.
A C U is the newest addition to our family. She was a stray and found her way (through a friend) to our home. She is so adorable and the kids were instantly in love with her
Chickens
When we bought our farm house (okay farm is not really true) we decided we would get chickens. My amazing hero agreed to 10 and some how we ended up with 21. I have been told that is called chicken math.
Goats
I have to be honest, I love my goats. If it was up to me I would have them walking around the house. We have two for milking and one for meat. Next year we should have three for milking. Although the thought of my baby girl getting pregnant is hard for me.

Anna begged for a sewing machine for Christmas. She got it.. tried it once.. I got frustrated with it and walked away.. she did it. However, now she keeps asking to sew and my response is .. "later" or "maybe tomorrow". Sigh.. why couldn't I be like my mom.. she was awesome with a sewing machine.
