It's a daily grind episode on the Sheproos Faithful podcast.

Bugs in my pants, training up children in the way they should go, the New England

Primer, worship songs.

Those are just a few of the things on this daily grind edition of the Sheproos Faithful

podcast.

Welcome to the Sheproos Faithful Podcast, episode number 14, truth and encouragement to live gospel-centered lives every day.

I'm your host, Lauren Lushak.

Happy fall, ladies.

Today I was out in our yard watering things, and as I was dragging the hose over to our little

raised garden beds I felt something poke me in the back of the calf and so I turned around and I

looked and there was nothing there so I kept walking but something and my little female bug-fearing

brain told me that nothing doesn't poke you in the leg.

Something was there.

So I reluctantly felt the back of my jeans.

And sure enough, there was this bump.

And all of a sudden, that bump was trying to move up my leg.

So I dropped the hose and I tried to roll up my pant leg, but curse the skinny gene for not having the room to get

bugs out of my pants. So there I am like buckled over in the yard and I'm trying to hold it together,

you know, not scream or make this gigantic scene. And I'm trying to roll up my pant leg, but of course

it's getting stuck and I'm yelling a few times, you know, as it continues to crawl. And I finally managed to roll up my pant leg, but of course it's getting stuck and I'm yelling a few times,

you know, as it continues to crawl. And I finally managed to see this little leg and I pull it on,

I pull on it and this little grasshopper comes out. Now, this is far better than I could have imagined
