  Description

  Hello. We were a family of 11 but many of our children are flying the coop now.
  - Young woman preferably.
  
  We are a Christian family who strive to place Christ first in all our interactions. 3 of our children are married and have given us some grandchildren! We have some fun family get-togethers. Our 5 children remaining at home are very busy so I am finding that I could really use an extra pair of hands, preferably a fun, young lady(s) who interacts well with teenagers, to help with some of the family chores alongside the younger kids (14 and 17yrs) or on your own. I am looking for help in the kitchen: cooking, cleaning up and baking. Gardening: weeding, processing produce ie: dehydrating, canning. What are your gifts/interests? Where do you excel? I am around all the time as well so we would be working together at times and separate at times. I'm pretty flexible. We Homeschool so we like to take some day trips, go to the river 5 mins from our place, kayak, etc. We have 4 acres with chickens, bunnies, ponies, motorbikes, zip line, rope swing. Lots of fun between the work.
