About Me

richmomma
Loving and learning on a couple acres in the country with my hubby and BigSis (22), Lizzi (17), Anakin (16), ‘LilDude (9, born in Korea)...and GG (6, born in China.) Rich MOMents = never a dull MOMent! We garden, live a frugal life, cook kid-friendly meals (usually gluten-free), eat with the season, homeschool & public school, grow through adoption and work to remember that we are part of God's global community.
