Wow, I've tears! Yeah, I'm such a sap!
Each of you has reminded me I've done all that and some more. Libbie your personal triumph is a master piece of emotion and love. I've had the moments, too.
I've moved irrigation pipe, built fences, raked and baled hay, driven a combine, a cotton picker, and a green bean picker. I've pulled calves, been there comforting and encourgeing a mare during delivery, watch quietly as a rabbit doe kindled and milk cows in early morning and again as the sun sinks low. I've sat on the porch dirty from head to toe after working on a feeder slab for pigs, or worked 400 head of cattle through the shoots and branded their calves and feeling as if the world is so very good, and I'm clean and whole. I've sat on the porch and watched deer moving across the pasture, a coyote smelling the wind, a skunk or raccoon going about their routines, the birds singing, the insects humming. Mother Earth draws my soul and I've always surrendered to her beauty and wisdom.
Thank you with so much love for each of your farmgirl moments, as each one is also mine....
With love Kim
Heaven is a day at the ranch with my Santa Gertrudis! |
