Tears pricked my eyes as I handed the lamb off to it’s new owner and Elvis lyrics ran perversely through my head to the tune of In the Ghetto: “And the mammas cried…” Sucking in a fortifying breath, I bade farewell to this years’ bottle-baby.
Does reading ever make you tired? Exhausted? Having just wrapped up today’s accounts of Runamuk Acres I’m veering toward tired! I can understand the tugs on heartstrings from parting with the lamb.
One Easter as a young child my brother and I got a pair of Easter bunnies. So soft and cuddly. Only much later did we learn they would become Dinner bunnies! A microcosm of life on a farm with animals.
I appreciate the time you take sharing your life as a lady-farmer. That black visqueen is your “herbicide” provides a living example that there are safe alternatives to harmful agricultural methods. Hurrah for your mindful approach to being a lady-farmer. And mama. And writer!
Hahaha maybe some day I'll post the entire list of everything I accomplish in a week, because these are just the highlights. But seriously, I'm just doing what I feel called to do...all this farming, writing, homeschooling, scratch-cooking business. It's who I am.🤷♀️ I thank you for being such a dedicated member of my little tribe, Gary!!🙌
Love your farm stories, Sam. 💙
Thank you, Joyce! I appreciate your taking the time to follow along!🙏
I love it!
