Farm Wife

The farm wife I read about, wanted to be a teacher and loved to read. Her husband who does not read, does not agree with her reading as well. She got a teaching certificate and planned to go from there to be a teacher but ended up marrying a farmer. He would tell her that when she reads it is taking time away from them visiting together. She decided to limit her reading and try to just read when hes not around. Being a farm wife is an ongoing task, there is always something to do. Her and her husband were married for a few years till they had children. As soon as the children came in that just meant there were more things to do. She would begin her day at 4:30 by making food for the family and making sure things were neat before she would go outside to the garden to pick a few flowers to place in her hair. From there she had a quite busy schedule that would last till 9:00 and when that time hit she was reading while the children and her husband were in bed.

War.

To be honest I have not the slightest idea on the revolutionary war. What was it about? I can tell you it was about fighting and probably winning. When was it? My best guess is a long time ago. I know I've heard of it during middle school but I didn't attend long enough to pay attention or remember anything. Revolutionary sounds intense to me so I'm guessing it was a big deal as well.
