| Baby Vernon was Verity's and Mr. McPherson's first child. He was a happy and inquisitive boy. |
 |
| By the time Vernon was walking around, Mr. McPherson had seen the need to enlarge the house. |
 |
| The old room became the children's room. It was all for Vernon for a while, but Mr. McPherson expected that was changing soon. |
 |
| Mr. McPherson made a new bedroom just for Verity and himself right off from their old room near the fireplace. |
 | ||
| They did not have any luxuries, but Verity appreciated the privacy that the room was giving them. |
 |
| Vernon was still a toddler when Verity found out she was with child a second time. Mr. McPherson was ecstatic! |
 |
| The house reflected the changes indoors, but also outdoors. The old roof had been re thatched, and the extra room was very useful. |
 |
| The property was looking more prosperous each year. For Verity it was already her home. |
 |
| Vance McPherson was used to selling his harvest at the Windenburg market, but an agent for a man who lived in another land was interested in buying more from him. With his farm progressing, and his family growing, Mr. McPherson was content at how things were turning out. |
