These two books have brought me to tears and made me long for more connectedness with the land and community and rural life.🌱 🐐 🍅 the homestead pull is growing stronger. Has anyone else read these? What resonated with you? How did they change you?

Meet our two newest little buddies, Mr. Tumnus and Lucy! They were born on Tuesday and get to come home to the Shankstead in about a month!
We’ve started keeping a simple reading journal for longer Read Alouds. It feels satisfying to look back and remember what we’ve read and what we loved about each book. It’s also a great way to practice handwriting! Sometimes I draw something for her to color and sometimes I print out a picture that goes with the story. For now I just write the words and let her trace. Then she dictates what her favorite part was, but I look forward to her writing on her own! #homeschoolpreschool #thebookbuilthomepreschool #bbhpreschool
After our “interesting” veggie garden last year that involved too much rain, not enough time, and tomatoes growing in the flowerbed, we are trying the Square Foot Gardening approach this time. Hats off to my hubby who did all the planning and measuring and to our two cute little helpers! #welcometotheSHANKSTEAD #squarefootgardening #thebookbuilthomelovesgardening
