Had this on my mind for awhile now.....

The ongoing question and sub title of this blog is "why we're pro-life"!

All the writings thus far answer that question as will tonights' offering.

"Pro-Life" is enjoyable!! Or said more directly-LIFE is enjoyable!
I started a worm farm in my furnace room. It was so simple and cheap and useful! I have a rather large plastic tote that started the farm with a 5 inch layer of birch leaves raked up in my yard.  On top of that I poured about 2 pints of red wriggler worms I had bought, and added a layer of kitchen scraps like egg shells, coffee grounds, newspaper shredded up a bit, and wilted salad greens.  That was 2 years ago.

I rarely do more than add the kitchen scraps from time to time, and this year, we discovered the 2 pints of worms had multiplied into something like 10 gallons of worms!!

We sifted them out  a bit this spring, separating the worms from the compost, and I made tea for fertilizer in my garden, new worm farms for sale, and fishing worms that work REALLY great even for ice fishing here in Alaska!

They are really quite amazing, that small form of life - the Red Wiggler worm!

They are so small and give so much! Just like a child does!

I hope this causes you to think about the life of the mother and baby in a more loving way.
