Wonderful day. I headed to town for Dose and then I met Denny to get our second shingles shot. I went to the hospital to get a self-sleep tester machine. Then I went to Goldsmith's where my grands were. So good to visit and watch those cuties. We went to the bowling alley to meet Grandpa Hawkeye for a late lunch. I went to study after that and then home.
Found this and thought of farm life....... adapted
“Parents, let your daughters/sons grow up to be
horse farm
girls kids because they will learn quickly and repeatedly that life isn’t fair, that hard work is often trumped by Lady Luck, and that every defeat, no matter how terrible, is temporary. Let them dream big and kick on. Let them learn confidence, grace and grit. Let them build big muscles and strong backs.
Let your
daughters kids grow up in the barn/ hog unit. Let them learn that buckets need filling and stalls/crates need cleaning, even when it’s raining, even when it’s frozen, even when they have a different idea for how the day should go.
Teach them to drive trucks/bobcats and trailers/4 wheelers and ATV/dirt bikes/ tractors. Teach them to change tires and wrap leg/pull pigs and give shots. And
let them leave a spur mark, or a bit rub, or a bandage bow, and let them deal with the shame of causing pain to an animal they love.
Let them grow up with horses/ farm animals and with good
horse people, because it will teach them to be humble, and to be resilient, and to be brave.”
