howling wolf: May 2013
http://howlingwolffarm.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Mama's learning to follow her heart. Wednesday, May 29, 2013. A week ago I dumped and mixed 45 pounds of seed in my trusty, rusty old wheelbarrow. A veritable mountain of dreams took shape in the gaping maw of that rickety work horse. The dream of a pasture of our own took shape right before my eyes. Now I look on in hopeful wonder and watch carefully as the tiny green sprouts rooted in passion reach for the light. Saturday, May 25, 2013. And honestly, I've no right to be.

howling wolf: When darkness settles in
http://howlingwolffarm.blogspot.com/2014/01/when-darkness-settles-in.html
Mama's learning to follow her heart. Friday, January 10, 2014. When darkness settles in. My goodness, it's been grey here the last few days. So dark that it seems the light never changes from the low light of early morning. It just sort of stays that way all day long into the low light of nearly-dark. So, what have we been doing in such conditions? There have been some kitchen trike shenanigans. Some hunting for forest treasures. Some planning and dreaming. That's the pasture at mid-day! Nice to meet you!

howling wolf: April 2013
http://howlingwolffarm.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Mama's learning to follow her heart. Wednesday, April 24, 2013. We got the tractor and tiller here again today, to do second and final till. Steve frantically spread the second round of amendments for me the morning that he left for India! And, I got a last minute delivery of about 12 yards of manure this morning and dumped them into the new garden area. Spread it with the tractor while it was here. I wish I could’ve gotten more, but that was about all I could swing for now. But, not anymore. The big kid...

howling wolf: The gift I didn't know I needed
http://howlingwolffarm.blogspot.com/2014/01/the-gift-i-didnt-know-i-needed.html
Mama's learning to follow her heart. Thursday, January 23, 2014. The gift I didn't know I needed. Does it ever happen that something comes to you that so deeply fills you up, and you didn't even know that particular hole was there, needing to be filled? Well, that just happened to me! My amazing mother-in-law (whose birthday it happens to be today. happy birthday Aurora! Fabulous and intuitive woman that she is, sent me a giant box of roving for my birthday. I had no idea how much I needed that! So, plea...

howling wolf: February 2013
http://howlingwolffarm.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Mama's learning to follow her heart. Wednesday, February 13, 2013. What we've been up to. Just a quick photo update. As many forest walks as we can get in breaks between rains. Working, working, working to get the new pasture area ready to be seeded. My first awesome date night out with my big kids since Jade was born. Little man helping with the pasture project. The early morning when the sun is still below the clouds. You gotta take it when you can get it! Burning brush from the pasture project. I am a...

howling wolf: January 2013
http://howlingwolffarm.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Mama's learning to follow her heart. Friday, January 18, 2013. Over on Soulemama, the weekly "this moment" post is a sweet ritual that I have never taken part in. However, this week I feel quite moved to share a single photo that captures a moment I wish to remember forever. Friday, January 11, 2013. We are off to a good start this year. We decided that after a year of falling way behind on projects around here, we'd hit the ground running in 2013. And, so far, we have! We are finally doing it! Once he d...

howling wolf: Around the Homestead
http://howlingwolffarm.blogspot.com/2014/05/around-homestead.html
Mama's learning to follow her heart. Thursday, May 1, 2014. Well sweet friends, it has been quite some time, hasn't it? I must admit that blogging is not currently at the top of my priority list, though I'd like it to fall back into the rotation. So today, as I sit in the waiting room while one of my children has a dental appointment, I'll give a photo update of the last few months around the homestead. Sound good? My sweet boy turned two. TWO! Trampoline bliss has returned! Our well has failed ( again.

howling wolf: Thirty Six
http://howlingwolffarm.blogspot.com/2014/01/thirty-six.html
Mama's learning to follow her heart. Wednesday, January 8, 2014. A little summer color and light on this grey winter day. I tuned 36 yesterday! And in celebration, I'd like to list 36 things that I am grateful for on this lovely day. In no particular order. Discovering a new passion for aerial acrobatics. oh my goodness, yes. Huevos rancheros filling my home with amazing smells as I snuggled in bed yesterday morning. Sweet cards made by even sweeter children. Emails with a sheep breeder. The soon-to-be d...

howling wolf: Silver lining
http://howlingwolffarm.blogspot.com/2011/03/ugh.html
Mama's learning to follow her heart. Thursday, March 31, 2011. OK So, I vow to be positive here. Yes, I'll be very, very positive. Look on the bright side, as it were. Walk on the sunny side of the street. See the cup half full. Find the silver lining. Yes, dear friends, our well failed. I can't help but note the irony that it hasn't stopped raining in weeks (with the one day exception last week). There is so much water everywhere. And yet my well is done. N o t a s i n g l e d r o p. Ha! Literally 20 mi...
