http://farmnjems.blogspot.com/2012/10/catherine-marshall-makes-speech.html
Wednesday, 10 October 2012. Catherine Marshall Makes a Speech. This is the speech from the movie "A Man Called Peter". it's SO raw and honest. And true. And no, it's not chauvinistic. Catherine Woods gets up to speak at a rowdy youth rally and is met by claps and cheers from the boys. 8220;If that’s because I’m a girl, thank you boys. When we’ve lost something sweet and mysterious? Something as, as hard to describe as the haunting wistful fragrance of violets? 12 October 2012 at 09:12. Standing within a ...

Farm n Jems: The 'Something' Big!
http://farmnjems.blogspot.com/2014/04/the-something-big.html
Saturday, 12 April 2014. I visited… the Philippines! Yes, the third world country we’ve all heard about. I went with my parents, and I loved it. I’ll admit it was different, sometimes awkward, challenging and at first sorta scary. But I gained an insight, also experiences, which I wouldn’t have otherwise. We flew in on the 12. Of March. Manila was busy, crowded and as we arrived late in the evening, sorta creepy. Especially at the hotel we went to! Oh well, I decided, next time I’d just do in the m...

It was an adventure park where I rode the skies. The Chocolate Hills Adventure Park (CHAP) to be exact. When we were told what was available, I was keen as a mung bean! After riding the ...

http://farmnjems.blogspot.com/2012/05/jezebel-co.html
Tuesday, 29 May 2012. Sorry we're late." I started as we stepped into my violin teachers house. "Dolly kidded this morning." I explained. She replied. "What'd she have? Two kids. Jairus, a boy, and Jezebel, a girl." I grinned happily. It was the first of the 2012 May kidding season. The day was the 11th of May. Sadly we didn't get any pics of Jairus before we sold him. Jana, where is Jamella? Mum asked me that Friday evening as we were doing the milking. Mum let Pie in. How are the goats? She had a littl...

Farm n Jems: March 2014
http://farmnjems.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 4 March 2014. I am writing to let you know about something I read, and my reaction to it. You see, I was reading in Ecclesiastes chapter 12, when I read this verse: "Because the preacher was wise, he still taught the people knowledge; yea, he gave good heed, and sought out, and set in order many proverbs.". Now, you should all know that I'm into quotes and proverbs. But this verse set me in action! I'm not a preacher, and I don't profess to be overly wise, but I love. A preview. ;). Fairly well ...

Well, I've gone over the whole house yard, and can't see him." Her voice trailed off. Though we didn't know it at the time, it was going be a long hard evening ahead of us. Before I go on, I am going to go into a bit of detail about the neighbours property. In the meanwhile, I called my other sister, Cherith. And told her what was going on, and a...

Farm n Jems: Memory Lane
http://farmnjems.blogspot.com/2014/01/memory-lane.html
Monday, 6 January 2014. Walking to the Big Dam, I travel. Down memory's lane, and I revel. In the fun of yesterday. Memories that won't go away. A snake slithers by my feet;. This ghostly playground is now bittersweet. What happened to all our fun? And all the great things we'd done? It isn't a story so tall,. It takes only a few words to tell all. You see, my brothers have grown,. And all have left home. I miss my boys. The games, the teasing, the noise. If I could go back, I would. Oh, if only I could.
