Happy Tuesday, ladies! It has been a morning full of work...I've worked on Etsy orders, made a new plan for our goat feed rations, and harvested French Fingerling Potatoes with my little ones.

Good morning, ladies! The house is quiet, and the day has just dawned. This feels so good, doesn't it? At the same time, I'm looking forward to hearing tiny voices through my bedroom door shortly.

Learning to be Content {with My Husband’s Income}
