In this wonderful time of exciting changes, life is good.
There is a sweet family in Portugal I have followed for about five years.
They have endeavored to live off-grid in a sustainable lifestyle that protects
the earth. Leah has shared many home-spun recipes that I have tried over the
years, and in fact, I successfully made my first batch of sun-dried tomatoes
with her recipe. Maartin, her husband, works tirelessly to clear the land, save
the trees, and find groundwater for the crops they grow and their family. The
environmental farming methods the two know are great for learning how to be
self-sufficient on their land.
We've watched as they added another child to their little family and taught
them how to garden. The patience and kindness both parents show to their
children while teaching them to live with the land are remarkable to see.
Parents who put their children first and teach them how to live are something I
imagine many American parents would like.
The mention of them is simple. If not for their YouTube channel, we would know
nothing about their current needs due to the hurricane. So instead of my usual
blog, I ask that you donate to their GoFundMe account; it would help them
greatly. They have lost everything they worked so diligently to build over the
years.
Here is her blog to explain their dire situation. If you can donate a dollar, it will help. Thank you for being so kind.

Happy New Year of giving to those in need. *Remember, give of your abundance, not your need.
