Day 17

Let me be really clear, I am happy with my life for the most part, so playing Wife Swap does not really appeal to me, but if I had to I would love to go and be an Amish wife, any Amish wife, I am not particular, well she would need to be nice, and have a houseful of children, because I would totally want the whole experience. 

No, I am not crazy, I love the way they live, it is so beautiful, so peaceful, so surrounded by Jesus, and yes so SIMPLE, some may disagree with the simple part, but waking every morning to the chickens and candlelight sounds appealing to me, maybe a little better if we could push their definition of morning back a couple of hours to meet mine, simple MODEST dress, community living, peaceful evenings, rocking a baby, spinning wool, churning butter, baking bread and not hearing "you make your own bread?", for the record I grind my own wheat too, and just finding great joy in all that surrounds me and my little cottage full of children!!!

This would honestly be my dream, I am working towards this a little at a time, but in this society it is not easy!
