What all do I tell?! I am very exhausted as I try helping Heather not be exhausted. She was able to come home from the hospital last eve, and hadn't really slept since last Friday night. I couldn't get over how lucid she was with all her questions and all the stuff thrown at her, yet nodding off as she'd quietly sit nursing, or finally a moment when no one's around. Glad I was knitting socks, so occupied and trying to keep her at peace.
Tho I hardly sleep, she's getting sleep.
All's I can say is Will is really a cutey and very good. Pray for us to remain healthy. He's a bit jaundiced, so we're working at him eating good, which means an electric breast pump a sweet nurse at the hospital let us borrow. I take him for more blood tests tomorrow.
It's good to be home is all Heather keeps saying. Good night.

Happy to hear that Heather is settling in to the new phase of life. It is a most wonderful place to be -- home with the miraculous: New Life. I will continue to pray for rest and joy and add jaundice to the list.

I made the spice cake for dessert a couple of nights ago. I took every shortcut possible (halved the recipe, beat in the eggs all at once, left off frosting). IT WAS DELICIOUS! The family cheered. It has enough body to be a perfect picnic cake. We have a new family favorite in our house. I plan to experiment with whipping the whites and adding frosting for "special" occasions. : D
I am so excited to find you have a blog! I have been wishing you did for a few years, and then yesterday I got out my much worn/loved copy of Hearth & Home and decided to google your name and found your blog.
I first read your book many years ago and it changed my life- literally! I began grinding and baking and started a pantry. Somewhere I've gotten off-track and I'm trying to get back to being a "health nut". I listened to a tape I got of your nutrition class you did in San Jose a few years ago at a CHEA convention I attended. I'm so glad to find you here and look forward to being inspired to a more healthful way of living once again! : )
