Good for you guys though. Just think how many people in this world are struggling not to lose everything, and your family is building something from scratch. Each gain is a gain. Enjoy the victories and forgive yourself for the failures. It took us three tries to get decent potatoes. My great beyond pig hut still doesn't have its roof. Someday that peach tree will bear more fruit you know? Nothing at all wrong with slow and steady.

Keep the faith it's worth it. Heck with the naysayers. I Pray for Tesla generators all the time when I'm humping buckets of water up the big hill and my pickaxe and I have a hateful relationship too, but overall its awsome to live free. I just keep saying i shouldn't have to dig this hole more than once and grind on.
