On 1/5th of an acre this family grows everything they need plus have a farmer's market on their front stoop and sell to local resturants...you don't have to do that, but do what you can with what you have, forget about shoulds and enjoy the children...they are only little once.City Sisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11474047622089407153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5112012123245586761.post-61373140803508055932010-09-30T10:00:30.409-04:002010-09-30T10:00:30.409-04:00Thank you, this is a great post.

It's so true that most of us spend too much time and energy looking for something more, thinking about "someday," instead of focusing on the here and now. <br /><br />This is a struggle for me especially, because we very badly want to move to the country and homestead, but because of a rather dismal financial situation are stuck right where we are in a gross townhouse in the city...I try hard to appreciate each day and bloom where I'm planted and all that, but as I said it's a struggle sometimes! I guess I should be focusing on the fact that I'm raising my children, even if I'm not raising chickens...and that's much more important work!Laura @ Getting Therehttp://gettingthere.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5112012123245586761.post-1774193924814811692010-09-30T07:10:51.390-04:002010-09-30T07:10:51.390-04:00thanks...its been a long, contemplative, road gett...thanks...its been a long, contemplative, road getting to this place. but its really great to be here. present (most of the time:). i know so many of us are in the same boat.Country Sisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05412683083209167611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5112012123245586761.post-69565611086836891772010-09-29T16:16:39.122-04:002010-09-29T16:16:39.122-04:00what a wonderful post, thank you for sharing your ...what a wonderful post, thank you for sharing your lifework. i appreciate this term!gardenmamahttp://www.gardenmama.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5112012123245586761.post-216279335404635532010-09-29T16:07:25.042-04:002010-09-29T16:07:25.042-04:00I love it.
