The kitchen in this cottage is small and simple but it is perfect for the small family who use it. It is just a little nook in the corner of the cottage, with wooden counters and a nice wooden basin to fill with water. There is stone oven and also beside the counters there is a fireplace where a pot hangs on a hook. Their are shelves full of plates and bowls and other tools, and a cupboard for food storage.

I am a relatively blessed person. I see other families with not enough beds as their are backs. It puts me at ease knowing their are only 4 of us. I love my family and want them to live a life of peace.
What are you cooking? Some creamy potato soup, I got some cream from the neighbors dairy cow It smells delicious. We truly are lucky to only have 2 children.  One more wouldn't hurt, what is one little baby, so sweet and snuggly. Well, it would be nice to have another lad to help in the fields. Or a wee lass for your work. But it's one more mouth to feed. I know, but I bartered for the milk with things that I made myself and I grow as many veggies in our home garden as I can, we could do it honey I just couldn't bear it if Maribeth and Nevill went hungry ... You truly think we are blessed enough for a third? I think we are blessed enough to have 8 someday if we really wanted to, Once the oldest ones get bigger they can start helping out much more with everything. But what if there is another famine? Or a plague? Children are a gift from God, you trust God he will give you enough to feed your family, all we need is faith and a willingness to work hard, God will do the rest. Well if you think it's best .... let's get started making one! The children are here and I am making dinner.
