And Here is what Denise
In response to your question. Being a Wildflower is to me being part of a group(bouquet) of women who are kind, encouraging, beautiful. Also just as a Wildflower is sometimes a lone flower, it means I can have the freedom to be myself within the group. Being a Wildflower makes me feel as though I have a group who I can depend on to encourage me and also that I can encourage. Like a team that roots for one another. I don't really know how well I explained but this is what l've got.
Thank you Denise.

| I agree Denise, there is always so much love and encouragement from everyone! Like a team rooting for each other, I love that! |

| I have to admit that I go back and re-read everyone’s response each time a new one pops up. Y’all are ALL amazing!! In the coming year I hope that I can give as much love, encouragement and friendship as you all have extended to me. Thank you again Debbie for tending to our “garden”. |

| To be honest I couldn't remember what I wrote. I knew it wasn't long. I am printing these out and adding to my Wildflower notebook where I keep the info pages for everyone. |

| Wanda, I am an organizer by nature. Unfortunately, I am not always organized. By that I mean I like to organize things but they don't always stay that way and I am terrible at using what I've organized. |

| lol, same here Denise. I gave up on planners years ago. What good is it if you organize it but never look at it, good grief. |

| Debbie, my daughter-in-law swears by a planner. It goes with her everywhere and she can’t make a move without it! I’ve tried, it’s just not in my DNA, so I guess I’m a “fly by the seat of your pants” kinda gal, LOL. |

| I don't use a planner just a little pocket calendar and one on the fridge these days. I do enjoy organizing things though. For example today I am organizing my two little storage rooms so I can put my Christmas things away. I have smaller tubs for different holidays, Easter, valentines, st. Patrick's day, and July 4th. Christmas has more than one tub plus I have certain things I put out for summer. Not alot and some of it fits in just a shoebox. But I like it organized so I can find what I'm looking for when I need it. |

| I have a storage closet in the garage. I cleaned and reorganized it this fall, it was a mess. Now I have each holiday on a shelf and the lower cupboard is just for Christmas. So much easier to find things! |

And Here’s Marilyn Godfrey’s:
Being a wildflower, means there are others who care about me! When I fall down, and when I'm hurt, there are sweet ladies who send me a Card.
I got a Christmas card from Marilyn and she is fine. She talked about her Grandchildren and her two dogs who she loves. I sure miss her being around the farm. She has so many computers issues which does not help.
Thank you Marilyn. |
Big Hugs,
Debbie

And her is what our Farmgirl of the year Krista had to say about being a Wildflower:
When I think about being a member of the Wildflower Hen House I think about community, friendship, and support! Being a Wildflower allows me to have an extra special bond with like minded farmgirls. It's more intimate and close knit compared to the regular forum, so it allows for the growth of extra special friendships. I know I am a part of the Wildflowers because of a great friendship that I had already and I truly look forward to bonding with the rest of the Wildflowers. I enjoy seeing the extra special stories and celebrating birthdays and holidays on a whole new level. I know I am more reserved and quiet but being a Wildflower means more to me than you Know.
Thank you Krista.

Here is what Hannah had to say:
Being a Wildflower means being part of something bigger than myself.
Belonging to a group of sisters both similar and different and learning from them through the sharing of our lives and experiences. I'm very glad I found the Wildflowers, as you have all become very dear to me.
Thank you Hannah.
Hannah is taking some time for herself while she deals with some medical stuff. She will be back on the HH as soon as she gets them resolved. We miss you Hannah, big hugs. |
Big Hugs,
Debbie
