Self Reliance Illustrated Issue 19 In March, my first 2 articles debuted in Self Reliance Illustrated's Issue #19.  It was quite an honor for me to be printed in this magazine.

Our family has been receiving these magazines from the day the 1st issue was printed.  At the time I could have never in a million years, as the saying goes, have imagined that I would some day see my name displayed inside.

At that time, writing was in the back of my mind as a dream that maybe someday I would attain, but God was still playing with those ideas.

Yesterday, I received my copy of Self Reliance Illustrated Issue #20 which has 3 of my articles in print.

I am extremely excited about these articles:

  • The Benefits of Salves and Tinctures
  • Goodness and Benefits of Tea
  • Homesteading and Survival with a Special Needs Child

 

Homesteading and Survival with a Special Needs Child holds a place near and dear to my heart and especially right now.

Our Mountain Boy is 17 1/2 right now and we just towed his 1st vehicle back to the wilderness, a 1951 Willy Jeep.

 

Mountain Boy Journals - 1951 Willy Jeep

It will require a little TLC, but it is a GREAT 1st vehicle, one that myself and the Mountain Man are just a touch envious of!

In addition to this excitement, he also passed and received his Idaho Learner's Permit.  These are HUGE steps for our boy and honestly there were times early in his life that the thought crossed my mind that he may never be able to drive!  It is amazing what faith, trust and perseverance can accomplish.

Never give up on anything in life, especially  another person!  The sky is the limit and determination can open doors.
