"Let every individual and institution now think and act as a responsible trustee of Earth, seeking choices in ecology, economics and ethics that will provide a sustainable future, eliminate pollution, poverty and violence, awaken the wonder of life and foster peaceful progress in the human adventure."
- John McConnell, founder of International Earth Day

RIGHT NOW, and then again tomorrow and then again the next day and on it goes day after day,
1/2 OF THE WORLD lives on LESS THAN 2 DOLLARS each day.

Psalm 27:4
One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple.
Do all you can and don't worry about the odds against you. Wield the miracle of life's energy, never worrying whether we fail, concerned only that whether we fail or succeed we do so with all our might. That's all we need to know to feel certain that all our force of diligent effort is worth our while on Earth.
Carl Safina, Voyage of the Turtle

Summer Plans

Since tomorrow is the last day for teachers...finally!!

We are making many summer plans



We are continuing to pray for Mim's homecoming to be soon!!!


We plan to continue to enjoy our feathered ladies as they grow. Now at six weeks old


Thelma

Edith/Quincy


Louise and Harriet


Maeve...we also are expecting six more chicks the second week of July to total 16 birds. You will have to wait and see who they are.

We will also be winterizing one of the old raptor cages to be used for the chickens for the winter months.



Ve will be attending 4 hours of summer school "Bridging to First Grade", 4 days a week for seven weeks, and playing t-ball one night a week.

Tuks will be attending the YMCA pre-school summer school, 2 mornings a week for 2 hours for six weeks, gymnastics class one morning a week and also t-ball one night a week.

I am hoping to take the girls camping at least 3 -4 times this summer plus take little day trips or over-nighters to towns and places within easy driving distance.

I plan to get back in shape since I haven't exercised in like 3 months...why I don't really know, just didn't feel like it was effective and lost my motivation, but now I hope to be back on track.


And our Phoebe is incubating her second clutch of at least two eggs. She already reared her first clutch of two. She is a busy lady!!!
