Quack Quack

I did say I wanted duck for Christmas dinner...not quite what I had in mind...


Luella and Ethel

I present our newest additions.  Yes, they are sitting on my leather sofa!  The kids and my hubby thought they would enjoy it.  I was not as eager to accommodate...all I can say is... THANK GOODNESS it's leather.  I wasn't completely heartless, after their bath, I did allow them to stay in the house until they dried out and warmed up a bit.  However, by the end of the evening, I made sure they were in the barn snuggled up with the goats.  If it had been left to the kids, I would have been sharing my bed with these two quackers! =)

They are incredibly sweet and we already got our first egg!


Hope your day is blessed!

Until then...

Light Always Wins

 I was seven when I stepped foot into the Tel Aviv Airport accompanied by my stepdad - a Palestinian. The Israeli soldiers stood armed as they ripped through each of our suitcases, pulled my dad into a room for questioning, and detained us for several hours. We were not there as tourists. We were on our way to Jericho to visit family... but we were the enemy. Even at seven the hatred between all was undeniable. As a child I did not comprehend fully but I remember...fear.

I remember the tears, the anger, and shouting. I can't recall most of the words spoken that day. I don't know whose argument was stronger. What I do know is...what the Bible says about God's chosen people, and that in war... no one wins...even when it is necessary there is always suffering for both sides. The J...

Judgment Loomed

As I exited the door my heart was pierced with their animosity.  Hatred and poison spewed from their lips.  Murderer!  Whore!  Baby killer!  You'll rot in Hell for what you did!  Over and over...  The savage mob encircled me with no escape.  Screaming just a breath away from my face.  Shoving with such force I was almost knocked to the ground.  They spat in my hair.  Humiliated.  Tears streamed down my cheeks as I pushed through the violence.  Once inside my car I began to weep.   Even in the present their vile words reel through my mind.  Beads of sweat began to form in my tightly clinched fists.  Squirming in my chair... biting my lower lip as an attempt to hold it together.  Peering above the Pastor's head as though I was looking at him... knowing if I did I would burst into tears.  That was my experience at church...
