God is so good, I sit in my wonderful home and God fills me with peace. Nothing will happen that he is not already ordained.I pray that today I may honor my King with what I say do and think. I will bring joy into our house because He fills me with joy. I want to be a blessing to the people around me. There is nothing I can not do, and I will do everything through my Savior. Little Woman I love this song! "It is Well with My Soul" When peace, like a river, attendeth my way, Refrain: It is well, with my soul, Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come, Refrain My sin, oh, the bliss of this glorious thought! Refrain For me, be it Christ, be it Christ hence to live: Refrain: It is well, with my soul, But, Lord, ‘tis for Thee, for Thy coming we wait, Refrain: It is well, with my soul, And Lord, haste the day when my faith shall be sight, Refrain: It is well, with my soul, My Hope Chest

I love my hope chest!
![]() It has things from the past. This doll was made by my grandmother, she made the dress on the doll from her wedding dress. ![]() The present. This is a photo albem where I am keeping some photo's, and pictures I have drawn until I scrapbook them. ![]() And the future. Books, blankets, candles, kitchen accesories, dolls, Christmas decorations, and so many other things!
Every time I get something new for my hope chest, I get very excited. I can not wait until it is my turn to get married, and have a family of my very own. I don't know when, who, or where, but I do know this. Jeremiah 29:11
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." See you all soon

My father and mother are both very generous in giving me a trip to go see my friend Ashley for graduation. I have finally finished packing (which was an ordeal) and will be loading onto an air plane first thing tomorrow morning. Sadly I will have to be in the car by three. Wonderfully I will be with a very good friend for seven days! I will be sure to post a slide show of all the pictures I get. This last week has gone by very slow with waiting, and sadly this coming week will be over before I can blink. I guess that is just the way life goes. So in hopes of keeping you all entertained I thought I would tell you a little story. Once upon a time about 400 years ago there was a sweet nimble fairy named Cathrine. She would move about so quitely that she had a habit of sneaking up on even a mouse. Although she would give the sweet mice a scare, they did not mind. Her precence was always worth having. One afternoon right as the sun reached the highest point, there was a little cry. It was a faint cry that most people did not notice, but fairy Cathrine just happened to be close enough, and the wind just happened to be blowing the right way that she heard the cry for help. She was not sure where that cry had come from, but was determined to help. She searched for hours, as she searched she fell into love with who ever it was who needed help. She could look so hard and long for someone without love. The last rock in the forest is were she found who had given the faint cry, by this time it was no longer noon, but early morning. An ant lay helpless upon the rock, as it wheesed for breah Cathrine realized something. The only ways she could save this helpless creature was in he same way Christ saved us. By giving her life to the ant and dieing herself. She did love this ant, so very much. What would people think of ther though? She saw it now on the front page of the leaf. We all loved Cathrine dearly, but she was a fool. She gave her own life to someone so useless that we don't even know the name of the creature it was just an ant. Yet Cathrine could not help loving this creature and she did the unthinkable, she used her magic and gave her life to the ants. Slowly but surly the ant came out of a deep sleep, where he was shocked to see that he was indeed alive! As he looked around he saw the lifeless fairy next to him on the rock and understood what a sacrifice he had received. Her friends the mice were shocked to learn what she had done, a fairy they had once loved they did not understand. They were so upset by what she had done that they went so far as to stop talking to fairy's. I like to think that for fifteen minutes that is pretty good...The ending could probably use a little work! Little Woman Introduction

I was thinking about my poor neglected blog, for a few reasons this week.1. We are moving and my friends asked me to keep up with this blog so they will know whats going on. 2. I love reading back at my past blog posts. 3. I really enjoy talking to some of the people I have meet through my blog. So here we go AGAIN. How do you get better at something you are not good at? I feel like I need to reintroduce myself because it has been so long. My name is Sarah but on her I go as Little Woman, I am the proud big sister to ![]() And George I have just graduated from High School, and plan to enjoy this season of life by finding more ways to help my mother
![]() I personaly don't feel that a woman needs to go to college to be someone. I hope that God will use me as a wife and mother one day. I am do want to take some classes at a jr. college on topics that I am intrested in.
That is all I have to say for now Little Woman God's sense of humor

My dearest readers, everyone in our house got quite a shock today. Today my blessed mother had her doctors appointment, regarding whether the baby would be a girl or boy. As the nurse was going through all the routine things she must go through to make sure the baby was healthy, my mom jokingly said, "My husband says if it is a boy he knows I was cheating on him."
No sooner had she finished saying this when the nurse said, "Well it looks as if you have a lot of explaining to do tonight." I have seven sisters and now God has chosen to give me a brother!!!!!!!!!! I am shocked, we all thought it would be another girl, and we all told everyone it was impossible to have a boy. So now we have five months, before we enter a whole new world! We had better start getting some BOY clothing.... Please Stop by my mothers blog, to congratulate her on her very first son. Precious Peas Dear readers I am dying to see if you find this even half as funny as I do. Please tell me what you think.
Little Woman
My dearest brother, How I never thought I would be able to say those words. I see that God will use you for many great things. You are his, chosen to show the world of his great loving mercy. You will be gentle, yet your was will be distinguished. How I love and pray for you. Although shocked, I feel as though you will be great. Love Him always dearest brother. January 9, 09

I love it when I get to write dates like today. Although it will be a lot better when it is 09/09/09 :) I also love it when the time is 1:01, or 2:02 etc. A friend once told me that when you look at a clock during on of those times someone is thinking about you. Well, even if no one is thinking about me when I look at a clock during one of those times I always think if her.
We have had a wonderful morning already! I woke up this morning and was able to get the rest of my History done. Then I got ready for the day, I am in charge of making sure all the little one's are feed and ready to go. So that's exactly what I did. I went into their room and woke each sleeping beauty up. They all made their request, and I ran off to the kitchen. Check out the weird meals they decided to have~ A pancake for sweet Little Bear
Of all things a Hot Dog for Doodler
The Rubber also had a wonderful pancake. She just like my mother requests the same thing every morning.
A wonderful, and healthy bowl of chocolate cereal for Juggler
Our blessed mother gets up and eats long before us. I can tell you what she had, because it has been the same thing for as long as I can remember. A bowl of raisin bran, and a hard boiled egg. Unless someone makes french toast that is what she has!
I had oatmeal~
As we eat we do our morning devotions, this morning we studied 1 Samuel 18:14-end We are learning to be keepers of the home we will one day have. Abigail was a wonderful example to this, because she kept her house peaceful. I think she is an amazing woman in more ways than this, but I ask you to read this passage and share your thoughts.
Please take the time to sign my guest book Little Woman

Wow, we are already almost done with this weeks school work. I have a mixed feeling about graduating. I am excited to graduate, I am excited to enter into a new season, I am excited see how God is going to use me after I graduate. I am upset that I will no longer be able to stay home with my family all day, I am sad that my mother will no longer be teaching me. I feel a like I did not get all the time I want with my mother since I moved in when I was ten. I am sad that I will not read history with my sisters, that I will not hear their laughter through the day. I know that where ever I go I will be doing God's will, because he alone leads my life. My sweet savior What am I going to do next?
Sometimes I wish that we could just have the book of our live stories. Yet then we would not feel the pleasant surprises, the unexpected blessings we have in life. I always think of Joseph! He was sold into slavery by his own brothers, and then thrown into prison by lies. Yet God made him great, and later on he would experience one of the best blessings possible. He was reunited with his family (through famine of all things) Does that not make you wonder what will happen in your own life??? Oh, how excited I am to begin a journy with God as my guide. ~Little Woman~ January 7, 2009

On Friday nights my little sisters enjoy sleeping with me in my room. Although they all sleep on the floor this is something they all look forward to. Every Friday night when daddy and mommy say it is time to go to bed little arms grab around my neck, and sweet kisses adorn my cheek. They look into my eyes and say, "can we sleep in your room tonight?" Of course!!!! So they run to their rooms to take pillows and blankets off their beds. Some how one or two always end up in my bed along the way. They lay on my floor and sometimes we are so tired we just go to sleep. Other times we all sit around and giggle until we are so tired that keeping our eyes open for even another minute seems impossible. Friday nights come and go, but always I will be an example to these sweet girls. I find my self saying, "God why did you choose me? How can I do this great task, when I myself have so much to learn." It has been making more of an impact on me lately how these girls look up to me. Every word I say seems to be repeated, when in my frustration I lash out my harsh words are never forgotten by them. The ask Sissy are you still mad at me. How it brakes my heart when they back talk dad and mom because I set the example.

Happy New Years! 2009 :0 There are so many things happening this year. I am graduating from High School, I am going to have another blessed brother/sister, and I am learning to drive. (WATCH OUT) The older I get the faster time seems to go, I use to look at the six months from now until my birthday as if it were forever away, now I look a the five months until graduation and wonder how it came so fast. It seems like I just started High School.
I have to write a paper for the year book, about myself. I think I might post it on my blog, as long as you will all tell me what you think of it.
Christmas seemed to also fly by, although we had a stomach virus roaming through the house, my parents got me a Honda Accord for Christmas!!!! I did not drive it on Christmas day, because I was afraid to get sick in it. I will post pictures soon..... Sorry it has once again been FOREVER since I posted.....I am amazed at the people who are able to post daily......

Can you believe that Thanksgiving is here!!! There are so many things to be thankful for. I am most thankful for the love my Savior has given to me.Why should we just give thanks today! We are blessed everyday. Here is a challenge for yourself and me also. Let us have a thankful year, no matter what is thrown our way. Remembering that it is all for God's glory. Corrie Ten Boom lived during a horrible time in history. While in concentration camp she gave thanks to the Lord for flees... We are here to be a light into a dark world. So let us give thanks we were chosen! Please tell me what you are thankful for today :) ![]() Little Woman November 24

Good evening my fellow bloggers! Our mother gave us the week off of school!!!! Today everyone has been just fine being able to play. Hopefully it will last, but normally by the middle of the week everyone is restless of having no school. I am playing CATCH UP this week! I am behind in English, Spanish, and even my very favorite history.
I am also hoping to organize the doors in my bedroom, and to Finnish my christmas gifts. I have a lot to do...Today I tried to change my template around! As you can tell it did not work to well.
Look at how much Little Bear has grow this last year
She just got cuter thought... That's for sure.... Ok so I didn't know what picture to use
off to do spanish~ Little Woman November 19, 2008

It has once again been a while since I have added anything to my blog! Well so many different things have happened since my last entry. We have ended the courtship with Nathan. Thankfully we are still able to be friends. This is a blessing, because I still enjoy his friendship. I believe that that is one of the true blessings of courtship, if things do not happen as we want them to we can still be brother and sister in Christ. I don't really know what else to say on the subject except that, we have learned A LOT about courtship, and are now not so blind as to what is coming. I have told my mother that the next time some one is interested in me I do not want to know until my father has gotten to know him. Romans 8:28 And we know that in all things God works for good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. I would appreciate any prayers for my birth mother who is going into surgery on the third of December. She is going to have a hysterectomy (spelling???) I am praying that she will be able to heal and adjust quickly! I am planning to go visit for Christmas. Can you believe that Thanksgiving is around the corner? I am sure that the time only goes faster the older you get. When I was younger I felt that it took FOREVER for a year to go by. Now I blink and we are nearing the end of 2008. The Juggler suggested that we make place mats. I think that this could be tons of fun, so I am going to google designs for Thanksgiving place mats. My wonderful...most amazing....lovely....spictacular (thank you mother dearest) mother is giving us next week off of school! I plan to get caught up on Christmas gifts that I am making, and Spanish....some how I got a few weeks behind...:( I have been reading for the past two weeks To Kill a Mockingbird By: Harper Lee I am really enjoying this book, except for the foul language. It is really horrible how people treated others! They surly did not love one another as they did themselves. Well Little Bear is trying to get into my lap...and I have to put the key board away when her little fingers are in reaching distance.... Little Woman A new baby

We are all but unhappy in our home. My father announced that my mother is expecting number seven. We are all ready, and so happy that God decided to use are family to raise this precious child. It will be awhile before we all get to fight who over holds the baby. Of corse the Rubber (5) just says we need triplets. That could be fun...I would not mind!
Well I am so excited that we get to have a new baby in our house, but there are so many people who say things like. Oh congradulations...I think. or HOW MANY IS THAT....well I am sure most of you know what I mean, as you probably have experianced those nosey people also. Thank you God for blessing our family with this gift. Little Woman Happy Birthday Samantha

My sweet sister is 8 today! When she was born we did not think she would live, her heart was to big for her. She was put onto tons of machines . The next ten days of her life we spent praying that God would spare us a sister. God listened, and now she is a beautiful growing girl. Happy birthday Samantha, may God guide your ways. Follow his ways and let no man pull you from the path of our Savior.

Today was quite the day, dad stayed home and we spent the day in the wonderful company of each other! My darling mother came and woke me up at seven this morning; I must say that I hate getting up in the morning! When I wake up in the morning I just want to lay there and enjoy the noises going on around me. For years I would listen to my father ironing his uniform. I loved waking up to this, because it made me feel how very near he was. I hardly get to wake up to this blessed noise now for two reasons, the military keeps him away from home quite a bit lately, and they switched to uniforms that do not need to be ironed! (How rude) Now I get to wake up to my mother running on the treadmill, though this sound is not as wonderful to me, I do love knowing she is up. If she is not running, she is unloading the dishes. Now this sound I do love, because the sound the dishes being put where they belong makes me feel like the day is really beginning. I also adore it when my mother is talking to Little Bear. The sweet girl tries so hard to imitate what my mother said. She ends up speaking gibberish, but it warms my sprit. This is a good thing, because I hate getting out from my warm covers, the warmth and comfort I feel under my covers is found no where else. I love lying in bed and praying. There are so many things I talk to God about when I wake up. Mostly that I will honor him with the day I am faced with.
Today in bible devotions we talked about diligence. Proverbs 6:6 Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise!
(this is a cake I made a while back) I quickly said a prayer once I read these words; it went something like this… Lord I am not as diligent as an ant, but through you I can be. Give me the strength do your will; let me do my tasks as an ant does his. After devotions we went with dad, to bring a bunch of garbage to the recycling. We had to go to three different places, because no where takes everything! The Juggler was able to earn $2.90 from the aluminum cans. We also had to go the storage shed, packing for our vacation next week will be interesting. We are going to try a new way of packing for six. We are going to pack one day worth of clothes for each person in each suit case. This way we will just have to bring in one suit case in at a time. Once we got home we hit the books. I was a little behind on Grammar (as you can read I need this lesson) I caught up YEAH!!!! I gave the Juggler her spelling test, fixed my vocabulary from last week, and did my math lesson. Then my parents left me with the girls so they could run some errands. We jumped on the trampoline (the Doodler had a lot to teach me!) We danced to the music on the Jugglers blog, and we enjoyed each other’s company. I want to remember the days I spend at home as an older sister as some of the best days. My parents brought lunch home, and then it was time for History. We are studying ~The Roaring Twenties~ We are having a ball learning about the fashion, although this is how our sinful world got into the trouble it is in today. Never has our culture been so naked! It all started with the Roaring Twenties. Things got shorter, and they didn’t seem to stop. Tonight I am going to start my English book Babbitt I have no idea what it is about, as I have never heard of it. It was written by Sinclair Lewis in 1922 so I am guessing that it will be about the Jazz age J May the Lord bless you as richly as he has me, Little Woman Days of Grace

I don't know about you, but I feel like this year is going WAY to fast. It seems like just yesterday that we started school, and now we are getting ready to go on Vcation next week. My sweet Little Bear is already one :0 she was just born YESTERDAY. Why is it that the older you get the faster time goes?
Was she not the most precious baby?
She just never stops being wonderful. What a wonderful blessing she is to our home.
Sweet Little Bear I pray that you will love the Lord your God with all your heart soul, and mind. That you will give up your will, that you will continue to bless everyone that you meet. You were made to stand out, you were made to bring glory to our King. Let us rejoice in him always, and let us lift up His holy name, even when it is unpopular. I love you sweet girl!
Nathan's birthday is comming up, the sad thing is that we will not even be here for it! I must say he wants some weird things for his birthday.... they are all things for his truck...
May the Lord bless your day Little Woman
Sing a song to the King

I just have a heart of song today, so I thought I would share a hymn that I love! I am not worthy of what God has given me, and everything I can give him is far from what it should be. I long to be like Jesus, to get away from this sinful world will be a wonderful thing :)
Imortal, Invisible, God Only Wise
Immortal invisible, God only wise, in light inaccessibble hid from our eyes, most blessed most glorious, the ancient of Days, almighty victorious, thy great name we praise.
Unresting unhasting and silent as light, nor wanting nor wasting thou rulest in might; thy justice like mountians high soaring above thy clouds which are fountains of goodness and love.
Great Father of glory, pure Father of light, thine angles adore thee, all veiling their sight; all praise we would render; O help us to see 'tis only the splendor of light hideth thee!
I love the words to this hymn. Don't you just feel the words flowing together, giving God praise that only he is worthy of. Even as we give him this praise he deserves so much more!

To celebrate my little sisters 100th entry she is having a give away. I hope you will go visite her blog, and enter in the give away...(she is really excited)
On Wed. we celebrated our youth paster's birthday, buy dressing up crazy! It was quite funny, he did not expect us to all walk in looking like we just came from the salvation army. (Yes I am the one in the leg warmers, and seatbelt)
Hope this gives you quite a smile :)
But if it does not then this should.
Can you beleive how fast this year has gone? I feel as thought I have hundreds of Christmas projects to do, but not enough time. I hope I will be able to compleat the gifts I am doing for the girls in the church...I will not tell you what they are because a few of those girls read my blog!!!!
Right now I am reading a book called All Quiet on the Western Front by Erich Maria Remarque. What an amazing story! It is quite sad, because to think of living like that we would have to give up a lot. I find it quite encouraging, we all struggle through many things.
I am also reading a book called Home-Making by J.R. Miller
Yesterday my sisters took a "test" if you will on how good I was as an older sister.
I passed on all but one thing...Cleaning up after them without telling them that it needed to be done, or telling them to come help. I am almost a good sister....according to their chart, but I have a long way to go according to mine.

I hope everone is having a wonderful week! As it is Monday my day is full :) Any ways for my writting assignment I had to write a descriptive essay. I have two descriptive essays I would like you to read. Then I want you to vote on which one you think is better. The one that makes you feel as thought you were really there.
Essay #1
There are many places to see in this world. Some that are hot, and some that are colder than imaginable. If I had to choose one place I would love to see I would choose Paris. I have never been there, but when I imagine it this it what I feel.
All around me I heard people speaking a language I could not understand, the sound of car horns from the crowded streets seemed as if life could not exist without it. The buildings being so close together, reminded me of a coldasack. If you were in one building you were likely to hear people in all directions.
As I walked along I noticed how hungry I was. I was fascinated with a little café and decided to try it. As I walked in, the cold air became warm. People were sitting together reading, talking, and enjoying their warm coffee. The people seemed friendly, and ready to help me understand something foreign. After ordering my soup I sat down in a cozy corner to view all I could possibly take in at a time. The employes hurried in the kitchen, and shouted orders to the men prepared the food was something to be seen. Young woman sat close together on a couch by a bright fire place, reading a poem. A group of men sat listening with all interest to the words of this foreign poem. The soup was delicious. I have always heard the food in Paris was the best of its kind, and now I believed it. Yes, sitting in the coffee shop gave me a real feeling of how every day life in Paris would be, and I longed to be home again. I was very happy with how majestic everything was, but I could not help loving where my family was. So I opened my eyes talking in all the smells, sounds, and sites that I loved.
Essay # 2 We all know that the heart is the most important organ. I believe our own house has a room that pumps blood into the rest of the house. Our own kitchen is the center of our house; people come and go as blood circulates through the heart.
Thank you for reading my essays now pleas take a vote. :) This will let me know if my writting has inporved over a year. If you see any mistakes please let me know.
