I love how easy it is to find real and meaningful "chorework" for our children...things that they find rewarding and that truly help the family to function. There is nothing like hard work for marital bonding! I am smiling as I type it, as several instances come to my mind...better memories than even the times dh and I have spoiled ourselves with special dates, etc. It's an amazing concept, but there's definitely something to it! BTW, I enjoyed reading your recap of your visit with MInTheGap in real life! Wish I could comment on your blog, will be waiting anxiously for Doug to fix the comments! Thanks for coming by!

The other day at PawPaw's, (in the suburbs) he came to the front door, hands dirty and grimy, and said "look Mommy I found an ewwy gooey!" It was an earthworm all slimy twisting on HIS little four year old fingers. When he said "ewwy gooey" he wasn't even wrinkling his nose! LOL... just thought it was the greatest find! I want some hard work marital bonding too!! Maybe one day the Lord will bless us with a farm. Mrs. Meg Logan My son would love the country life, as would I.

It's so satisfying to be on the same page that way. But as for being a pioneer, yikes. I'd be whining on the second trip out to the well... Georgiana, 8 random things...okay! I'm up...I checked out your blog and will post something soon!

Imagine if you didn't. Good quality time. Well, quality time. Time? BTW, I tagged you for 8 random things! Must come to my blog and see the rules. :-) It’s great that you and your hubby both know how to do these things! Imagine if you didn’t. Good quality time. Well, quality time. Time?

I think it's great how you and hubby share those chores together! I think I would have to have been one of those pampered deputantes in the pioneer days. I can't cook, and washing is the worst chore for me and I am not one to back down in an argument, however, the staying home part and raising and teaching my kids would have been marvelous. hee.
