Chapter 20 - My New Life

Before long the children became theirs at home on the farm. Thoughts of love, and adoration filled our country home. And the farm life is exuberant, Amos, purchased Phobe her very own Shetland Pony, a furry creature standing three feet high. Precious, in gray and white fluff. With a pink bridle and bit.

Her saddle was made by Grosspapa, Opals Fater.

The kinner dressed Mennonite and little Phobe wore a simple black scarf tied to the back of her head. Since it was summer she wore a simple black dress, pulled on rubber ankle boots, and white ankle socks.

Theodore was too young yet to ride horses. So he received a puppy a sheepdog in white and brown. His name is Toaster, and he is very obedient and trained Amos from his breed.

The Nanny came for Phobe, Sister Lou, and a young in her mid-thirties. She walked all over with her when Opal was working in her store, and this came with the adoption. They picked a country nun who also grew up on a farm and loved horses.

Our boy Theodore, his Nanny's sister Eve young in her mid-thirties, and loves kinner so much. She carried him around in Opal's store, then teaching how to walk. Opal then put him on her back in an upward seat he could see all around then. While Eve folds clothes at the store. Helping Opal, their pay is the state of Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

Life is going so gut because Opal felt overwhelmed by sadness after a total hysterectomy. She'd thought her life doomed after not being able to bear kinner. And Amos the man who dated her afterward, married her. He always kept her feeling gut about herself.

Phoebe adored her and Pony and rode daily sometimes more than once. She named her Pony Sugar the cutest name it fit her so much.

Sugar mane heavily furry, striped in all colors of gray. And she followed her around like a dog. In the pasture.

Her Nanny never left her side, enjoying this life on the farm with Phobe. Amos, she called Dat. He loved being called someone Dat it was humbling for him and made him proud. Opal, they preferred to call Mama. She let them choose what they called her.

Nighttime in the Troyer home is peaceful and easygoing, relaxing. The kinner just received their bathes from the Nanny. They got their pajamas on. Each kinner had a separate room to sleep.

They had cuddle time while Their Nannies took time off to go shopping in town. Back in a few hours, our Amish driver drove in with them. And they both dressed cute yet plainly as nuns to go. They are never allowed to marry yet marry the church instead of a husband.

Opal tool to being a Mater with ease and love to her kinner. Tonight sitting on the front porch warm out, rocking the kinner. The porch is screened-in. And they drank ice-cold lemonade. Reading books out loud, for little kids.

Chloe and Herman drove to visit this evening. He is the veterinarian's old boyfriend, she recently married someone else. Chloe and Herman Bontrager have become very close. And Opal felt so cheerful for her. " Not necessary to knock Opal and Herman come in we are on the porch."

" Ok then," Opal said waving at them through the window." They stepped inside all smiles." I brought you all homemade coffee cake." Opal set it on the library table. Then both slid onto the couch. Much to the surprise of us all. Theodore said " Aunty Opal. She blew a kiss at Theodore and he blew one back.

They all laughed.

Chloe broke out the coffee cake, went into the kitchen brought out dessert plates, a pot of kaffi, and juice boxes for the kids. Herman joked," Nothing like helping yourself. " She's my best friend I can." They laughed again. She poured kaffi to sip while passing out coffee cake.

Dedicated to pleasing your better half. Keep a gut house and feed your family till full,"' I want to be a gut fra, ( wife). Hannah agreed because she wanted the same things out of life. They both are very involved in horses and breeding them.

They purchased two heavy Canners, and both went on the stove. While Emma and Hannah chopped up baskets of tomatoes, and potatoes, to slice separately to put in glass jars. Each had a small chopped amount of onion. Large cutting boards held neatly chopped pieces.

Everything is planted by a fertilized seed. Then planted into good earth soil to grow into a plant to pick vegetables and fruit off. How unique is the circle of life? To suggest you can grow food out of the ground is God's miracle.

Life is a miracle in itself and I am for certain.

Nestled in the Tree of Life and made into the fold. You can train your seeds to grow by watering them and variants to grow. Otherwise, if a seed just sat in its package open it would not go through a gestation period to be able to fertilize to grow into a fine plant.
