I don't ever remember dreaming as a little girl about wanting to be a stay at home wife who cherishes every moment with her home schooled kids and husband. In fact I remember how much I wanted to be a professional softball player like Dot Richardson. Don't get me wrong I would still love to be that, but God had a different plan for me my car accident will not allow me to play ball anymore and I am now ok with that. I still have my days were I feel sorry for myself and I miss ball like crazy. I miss the feeling of being a team. Chad and I are a team yes, but having 12 girls on your side through thick and thin is something different then a husband and wife team.
Anyway back to my point I really don't ever remember having dreams of making things from scratch or anything homemade like that. Oh how the days have turned, all I can dream about is one day being able to stay home with our kids (none yet) and be that mom that always has nutritional food that is made from scratch. I guess you can say I am a Laura Ingalls wanna be of sorts. I want to teach my kids things that I was never taught growing up and teach them the value in family. Neither side of my family ever had "that" grandma, you know the grandma that has homemade bread and cans her garden every year. Well I want to be that one day...lol I'm sure some of you are like lady you are so crazy why do that when its so easy to go to the store and buy it now days...well we are all different and I cherish the values that our ancestors were taught and had and I want those values to never fade away.
