hi hi! my name is crystal sullivan and i am a mother of 2 girls. 9 and 12. we just bought a home last october. its in the country, on 3 acres of land, with 9 fruit trees. we have had to do a lot of work to it all but i love it!! (we lost all our stuff and our home to a fire last year)
i love gardening! i used to have over 30 houseplants and a big collection of seeds but all were lost in the fire. i am very slowly replacing them all. our new house (its not too new, was built in 1860) has drained us. i wouldn't change anything though. i love this house! i feel at home finally!!
my mom got the mary janesfarm magazine and brought it to me one day, i fell in love with it instantly! i have read every one, front to back more than once since then!!
anyhow, thanks for reading!!

Welcome from Stagecoach, NV. Sorry to hear about the fire. Your new (old lol) house sounds great.
I wonder sometimes just how many times can you read MJF from cover to cover. I can never get enough, and since I joined the forum I can't wait to read what everyone shares.
