2008 News from The Lamb Castle
Our year has been swift and exciting~ Eric took a position teaching at the University of Minnesota. Our family relocated to a small town in North West Minnesota and we love it…especially me (Heidi).
We live near several organic farms. Elias and I spent many hours helping out at our community gardens this summer and tending our own garden. We get our milk from Netty our favorite cow and we love to make butter and ice cream.
We have already had visits from grandparents! Castles and Lambs! Or as Elias says “ Grandpa baaa”
Eric loves teaching and doing research. He is a great professor, and an even better Dad. I have the best job though…I play house all day every day, and I get paid for it! …well not really paid with money, but it is totally worth it when Elias gives me hugs and kisses. I enjoy teaching Yoga and I still run when ever I get the chance ~
I started a grassroots group that supports environmental issues in our community. “Sustainable Crookston” is our title. We meet monthly and discuss local issues and projects. We are raising money for our recycling program and have big plans for Earth Day!
We love being foster parents. This year we were blessed with four foster children~ Juan, Susanna, and Koty in Kansas. In November we welcomed Cohen (17). These children bring many blessings into our lives.
Elias will be a big 3-year-old in March. He loves trains, horses, playing with our dog and cuddling with the cat. He is mommy’s best helper. He delights his parents and makes us laugh Everyday!
May the Love and Light of Christ be with you now and through out the New Year.
Peace,
TheLambCastles
