Migration: Early Notice

I've been debating and contemplating moving my blog from here to a WordPress blog. The writing app for iPad and iPhone is really...not very good, and the writing in my new (!thanks Mom!) iPad on a browser doesn't work either. There are a host of minor, very first-world-problems, that cause draft posts to pile up on my phone or iPad until I can get time on our laptop to do all the laptop/browser only details which make each post flow, have pictures, etc.

I don't have a new web address yet, and I will be migrating my content as well as dual posting for a while after the Big Move. But I know I have some loyal readers out there and I wanted to you know, first thing, to keep your eye out for the new address. I promise I will try to keep this move as simple for everyone as possible.

New Pages

Over at the top of the side bar you will find a couple of new pages! One for the posts I wrote about Lonesome Whistle Farm - including all the recipes I used their beans and grains in. The other is for the Deck Family Farm posts which will be coming in the next days. Keep your eye on them.

Is there anything else -- any specific post topics that should be grouped on a page? Maybe our homeschooling adventures?

Expectant dawning
as we prepare for new guests.
Today we get chicks!

I Find Cowbird: A Story

A friend pointed me in the direction of Cowbird. It is a place of story. I love it. I published my first Cowbird story just now.

You can read it if you want to:  I Hear the Frogs

For Sister-Bug, on the occasion of her night-weaning:

Up before the birds,
I watch the sky transforming
as I cuddle you.

A friend, shelf of books,
a plot to dig hands into earth:
The necessities.

I envision days
of summer leaves rustling
as seedlings grow tall.

Daily Haiku: February 13th

Here come our chickens.
Today a dream of fuzz balls,
soon a bowl of eggs.

One coop in progress.

Daily Haiku: February 3rd

There will come a day
when pigs sprout glorious wings.
Then what will we see!

This giggling girl
can be princess or plumber.
Pink and blue don't bind.

Today's clear morning
draws me out, with umbrella,
searching Adventure.

Daily Haiku: January 25th

Open Mind and Open Heart
to see the evolution
of all that can be.

Daily Haiku: January 24th

Inscrutable face
of my pensive little Son
is peaceful in sleep.

Daily Haiku: January 21st & 23rd

Seek through these dark days
the speck of light that reminds;
Spring is nearly here.

Dreams curl like new leaves
around my heart, waiting for
Sun and Circumstance.

In the calm Center
I know everything is right
and mysterious.

Daily Haiku: January 19th

By this candle light
I pray big dreams and visions
That fly free on breeze.

Daily Haiku: January 17th

The way of Peace is
Strength, Courage, Living Ideals.
It is in the heart.

Daily Haiku: January 15th

Wish for fat snowflakes
to catch lightly on the tongue,
like magic falling.

Daily Haiku: January 13th

Crystal clear beach day
blows salty breeze on my face;
moves my hair and dreams.

Daily Haiku: January 10th

We must be that Peace,
the Peace we want for children,
or we are nowhere.

Daily Haiku: January 6th

Our few sunny days
temper the cold winter rains.
We absorb the sun.
