This cann't be happening

It was only yesterday that Audrey call to ask why her bed was wet! That was the night the twins were born. Now they are only months well weeks until they are 18.
They are almost of age, not necessarily full adults, but of age. I am sorry they are so far away. I miss you all.

Southern Ut Mother of the Year Award

This is something most of you don't know because she was very modest about it. Amanda won the Mother of the Year award for Southern Utah sponsored by the Utah Head Start Program. Out of the hundred's of Mothers who were nominated for this honor Amanda is the winner. But in my eyes she has always been a WINNER. She works a full time job, as well as raising her three children as a single Mother. The kids do see the fathers but this is only hours verses the many hours there are in a week. She makes sure the are clothed, fed, do fun things, learn, and all the things a good Mom does.
She has a love for all of Gods creatures large and small (even the disgusting ones-snakes-rats). She has acquired a dozen or so of little creators of the earth and cares for these also.
Once again school has began and she is running to and from the school daily and once again making sure the kids get what they need. I am very proud of her and want her to know it. So here it is for all of you who did not know.
Love ya Girl.

Been there cut that

Here I am as I call it, my office on wheels. There is nothing better then sitting in the drivers seat and looking out over the field at the carpet of green hay and at times a field of little purple flowers in bloom. Then you turn on the motor, push the handle forward, the air and tune's are flowing and off you go. Cutting hay is one of my favorite things to do on the farm. You see butterflies, dragonflies, moths, bees, mosquito's and a gambit of insects. Then there are the little animals, bunnies, pheasants, eagles, hawks and numerous other fowl friends. Once two coyotes came over to the last dyke on the south to forge for dinner. The first time I ever cut I was sitting thinking of how proud my Dad would be to see me sitting up there in my office. I even seem a eagle flying around and it was almost like he was there watching over me. Dad loved eagles and several times since his death I have seen one when I need a little comfort. I know it sound crazy and that is just all right with me. It is what it is.
I love to take the Grandchildren with me in the swather and I think they love to go to. Some times they will lay on the floor and sleep. Some times we sing, laugh and just talk. I hope they will remember the times we were together.

WHY

Why is it we never see how good we have it when it is right in front of us? Why is it we always think it is greener on the other side of the fence? Why is it we think no one else ever has it as ruff as we have it? Why can't we just be happy for the things God has granted us. Why can't we see the good and why do we focus on the bad? Why do we take it out on the ones who love us?
