family

Children are an heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward. As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth. Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them.

Psalm 127:3-5

We are a Christian family, living on a 150 acre farm in NW Pennsylvania in the foothils of the Allegheny Mountains.

We have six living children and two who were birthed into eternity due to miscarriage. We are expecting #7 in October 2006.

To find out why we have more than the average 2.4 children, click here.

We are a Home based family :-) We Homebirth, Homeschool, and Homestead.

Homebirth

Our last four children (and hopefully any future ones ; ) were born at home.

Homeschool

Our Homeschool, "Providence Academy" opened when Tori was 3 years old.

She has just completed 6th grade and Mikey is going into 5th grade. Matthew and Libby have finished 1st grade.

Homestead

Our farm (although not certified organic) is chemical free.

All of our livestock is raised on pasture.

We currently have cows, pigs, sheep, a rabbit, border collies and chickens.
