To wake up every morning and spend time in God's word and speaking to Him in prayer then go out and work in the field or garden. Coming back into the house sitting down at the table and being surrounded by all the blessings that the Lord has given us and eating breakfast of bread freshly made with butter that has been made from the milk from our cows in the paddock, eggs just collected from the chooks in the chicken-yard. Washed down with juice freshly squeezed from the fruit picked from the orchard.
After breakfast gather the children around the word of God for a time of family devotions.
Then I would go out and work the morning while the children would attend to their homeschooling,
Whilst working I'd be able to greet my neighbours over the fence who would also be working in their fields and give them a hand if they needed it. Then I'd come in for lunch of things mostly that have come from our own farm or from the farms of our neighbours. Then I would go back to work mean while back at the home homeschooling would be winding up, my darling wife and children may have our neighbours wives and children over for fellowship while sewing, quilting or knitting and the boys would come and help their Dad. After the day’s work I would come in to yet another meal from the garden and meat, either chooks, goat, lamb or beef that we have raised .
After dinner the family would gather again for a time of family devotions and sharing.
