After a one year hiatus (sorry I didn't warn you ahead of time), I've returned to log our farm adventures to the world. Life on the mountain is very very similar to where we left off last May... except for one.remarkable.addition.
Our family has been blessed with a sweet and happy baby girl who will be three months old on Wednesday. Three months already! Welcome Miekka Kluane...
I consciously chose to reserve all my creative energy for growing this child. And now that we are approaching the end of our fourth trimester together, I'm really pleased with that choice. No regrets at all.
Otherwise, I can honestly say that not much has changed. I'm still milking a zillion goats a day and the chickens are out everywhere. Ben is gone hunting, and my Mom is here to help everyday. Interns continue to come and go.
Even though we had a tremendous snow year, it somehow didn't set back our growing season. The first violets have just bloomed on the mountainside, rhubarb is up and the greenhouse is warm. Life is good.
Now I'm looking forward to wonder what the next year will bring for our family. Change is in the air... but which way the wind blows us remains to be seen. Stay tuned!
