Cleaning and scrubbing will wait ’till tomorrow, but children grow up, as I’ve learned to my sorrow. So quiet down cobwebs! Dust go to sleep! I’m rocking my baby. Babies don’t keep.
– Ruth Hamilton
I've always loved this.
I apologize for my lack of postings, but I've been enjoying my babies n fur babies A LOT lately. Tomorrow I WILL post my giveaway and soon fill you in on all the farm activities.
This morning I awoke to the smell of coffee ready and so many happy sounds... No, not pancakes sizzlin'... BETTER (to this farm girl's ears); Rooster crowing, birds gone crazy, kids not far behind makin' noise on their bikes (yes, in their jammies w/sweatshirts)... AND POWER TOOLS!
As I looked out my window I saw the continuation of my gift from The Farmer...
A new barn/run in shed in the WORKs!
This part has taken him under 6 hours. He's just stopped to go ted hay. While it's drying he'll come back and do more here. I can't believe how hard he works. For me.
How blessed am I?!
Hope you're feeling blessed and able to share this day, your way, with your family! <3

Happy Mother's Day.....I love that saying, soooooo true....wish I had read it and taken it to heart before my babies were grown and gone!
Love the new run in!
Oh thought of you today....Happy Mother's Day.
I was reading some articles by Laura Ingalls Wilder on farmer's wifes...you would love it, it is you...even though they were written back in 1920's!
Hug those precious kids and I am standing applauding your husband's work.

Love love love that poem. So true. They grow so fast. I love every stage - even this arm crossed - glare at mommy - "I the boss" stage. But I do miss my little bitty burrito I could rock and cuddle.
I'm jealous! I want a shed!
And I love that poem! I never knew who wrote it, though, so thanks for posting it!
