I am reading…Andrea Carter & the Dangerous Decision.
I am hoping… I get the job for $30.
On my mind… my funny family.
From the learning rooms… I am starting a new Geography book today or tomorrow... FUN FUN. Noticing that… my brothers pick on my mom a bunch.
Pondering these words… Matthew 5:29.
From the kitchen… Justin is doing dishes while Matthew talks to him.
Around the house… The girls are outside playing, Sam is going to bed, Lucas is reading to Mom , Papa is at his office and I am typing.
One of my favorite things… is to draw horses.
From my picture journal…

for January 18, 2010

Outside my window… it is a nice sunny day.
I am thinking…what am I thinking?
I am thankful for…all of my pets.
I am wearing…pink & white socks, army green capreeze and a dandelion colored shirt. It's a stay in the house day.
I am remembering…the time Barbara and I were at Mr. John's farm looking at the baby barn swallows. When we were there we made up a thing... IT'S SOOO CUUUTE!!!!
I am going…to keep answering these question.
I am reading…Andrea Carter and the Family Secret by Susan K. Marlow.
I am hoping…my mom will pick me up a Sobe when she goes to the store.

On my mind… Matthew is cranky.
From the learning rooms… I have started a new math book. Right now I am just Reviewing what I learned in the last book.
Noticing that… outside is the first real sunny day in awhile.
Pondering this word… honesty.
From the kitchen…Mathew is showing Katie what an R looks like, Larah is sitting on the table

drawing, I am typing on my blog and the dishwasher is running... It runs really fast Ha Ha.
Around the house... is just a normal day for the Walkers.
One of my favorite things… is taking the horses on a long ride with someone. That is my most favorite thing ever.

From my picture journal… The best horse ever in the world. Her name is Dot.

Isn't she gorgeous?
She is 28 or 29 years old. I think she is 28.

When I Grow Up

Above is my dream barn. Isn't it beautiful?

When I grow up I want to have a big farm. With a bunch of farm animals. I want it to be a farm for kids or adults that have been in the city for too long and need a week or two break, orphans that need to get out for a while, or people that want or need to know how to run a farm. I want them to know how to do all the chores and learn how to have responsibility. I want them to have neat relationships with different animals. I think everyone should be able to do chores on a farm. I think everyone NEEDS to be able to do chores on a farm and have a good relationship with animals. I think everyone should have a relationship with a horse. They are good animals to have a relationship with. I think I would choose to have a relationship with a horse than a pig any day. I would rather take a long horseback ride rather than sitting in the mud with a pig. I do indeed think if someone would rather have a relationship with a pig than a horse that is ok.

I want to have a big brown barn with lots and lots of stalls with all kinds of animals in them. Pigs, sheep, goats, cows and horses...lots of horses, and maybe more animals. I want people not to just learn to do chores on a farm, but learn how to enjoy doing chores on a farm. I would not mind teaching people how to cook things either. That would be fun for me.

I want to have a gift/pet shop with rabbits, birds, lizards, turtles and other animals. Candles, cards, homemade jewelry and thing like that. It is a big dream. I hope to have as many kids as God wants me to...if He wants me to. He may not even want me to be married. I want whatever He wants. That is what I want to do when I grow up.
