He that watereth shall be watered also himself

Proverbs 11:25
Here's a Charles Spurgeon devotional from Morning & Evening, August 21 entry:

We are here taught the great lesson , that to get, we must give; that to accumulate, we must scatter; that to make ourselves happy, we must make others happy; and that in order to become spritually vigorous, we must seek the sprititual good of others. In watering others, we are ourselves watered.

The Silver Brumby

Our children are just starting to enjoy this read aloud. We kick off the mornings reading this one. Luka (7 yrs): "I love The Silver Brumby especially the horses. The horses go on adventures and Storm and Thowra play together. They play hide and seek. That's all!"

Children of the New Forest

We are currently reading this book. Only up to chapter three, but greatly enjoying it.

The Garden Room

This is our new place to 'do homeschool'. It's been wonderful this winter, as the sun spills in all day long. We can sit at the table and look over our awesome garden, and thank the Lord for this great spot.

Two Chipper Chicks

Our lovely white Sikie, Chipper, has hatched two so far. She has been faithful, one hundred percent, by sitting for five weeks! We didn't manage to find fertilised eggs until after she had already sat for two weeks. There were two local Bantam Pekin Buff eggs and six Silkie eggs (posted) placed under her three weeks ago now. Thus far, one Pekin Buff and one Silkie - all crazy and stripey, have hatched. Today is hatching day, so here's hoping!
