Daddy date

My girls are so excited.  They have a date tomorrow. I really think that 6 and 7 is way too young for dating, but... I am so glad they have a daddy that loves them and spoils them. I hope that he "sets the standard high."  We often joke that they aren't allowed to date until they turn 30, but we are fairly adamant they won't be "dating" in the traditional sense.  We have asked them to allow us to help them choose suitable mates.  Wile I realize they may change their minds about it when they become teenagers, but I sincerely pray that they will seek our guidance and input in finding Godly and suitable mates they can be good "help meets" for.  I hope they someday have husbands who value them as Christ valued the church, who would be willing to lay down their life for them if asked.  I know I am so thankful for my wonderful husband for loving me so!

Just getting started...

So I've never blogged before, and doubt anyone cares what I have to say, but if you are interested I'll share my daily trials as a Christian, wife, mother of 3 girls, and veterinarian. I enjoy homeschooling my children, cooking, gardening, woodworking, and helping my husband with his cattle business.  I am frugal to a fault (according to my husband), and hate to buy or pay for something I can make or do myself. We live in a rural town in the Texas panhandle. Welcome to my world!
There's not a lot of down-time, which is OK by me. In this vets life there's no time to "Doolittle," cause we need to "do-alot" all the time.
