Dairy Farmer's Thankful Thursday

 

      Although life on the dairy farm this week  has been much the same with

milking and feeding the cows and performing the daily chores 

 required in caring for our animals and the land everyday,

we have all been impacted personally by the impact of COVID-19

on our families and communities.

As each day this week has unfolded with a new request to 

change our schedules or conveniences to protect our 

families and communities,a new awareness for what we 

 easily take for granted has been exposed.

Change can create a lot of chaos but it also brings to light 

those things we hold most dear.

I'm thankful for the opportunities during this stressful

time of change like  the moments of fun and silliness

with my grandchildren

and 

the joy  in  celebrating  my very sweet and special

Mother's 89th birthday!

                                  if there is anything worthy of praise, let your mind dwell on these                                                          things."
