Rooster On The Farm...

January and February have been extremely busy months! 

There are days that I wonder how we have fit everything in...

but...

I am ever grateful that we have!

 New York...Utah...Chicago and so much in between... 

But what I enjoy all along the way, are the sweet photos that The Rooster 

takes and sends to me, things that he finds beauty in. 

He has a very creative eye. 

 These pictures bring me great joy!

Beautiful Boy...

My Rooster...

Close your eyes, Have no fear, 

The monsters gone, He's on the run and your daddy's here,

 Beautiful, Beautiful, beautiful, 

Beautiful Boy, 

 Before you go to sleep, Say a little prayer, 

Every day in every way, It's getting better and better, 

Beautiful, Beautiful, beautiful, 

Beautiful Boy, 

 Out on the ocean sailing away, I can hardly wait,

 To see you to come of age, But I guess we'll both,

 Just have to be patient, Yes it's a long way to go, 

But in the meantime,

 Before you cross the street, Take my hand, 

Life is just what happens to you, While your busy making other plans,

 Beautiful, Beautiful, beautiful, 

Beautiful Boy

(John Lennon)

A Fresh Start...

This Beauty returned to school this semester. 

After spending 9 months at home, healing from her car accident...she took a leap of faith

 and made a fresh start in her life. She is in a new town, a new school, a new apartment 

with new friends...and a new job. Our home is quiet and we miss her madly...

but we are so very, very proud of her, her strength and determination to get her life 

back. I was visiting with one of her doctors as she was preparing to return to school 

and the Dr. said, "I am so proud of Precious...she has fought a hard fight to get her health back... 

she has earned it!" That is a true statement. She really did fight hard. 

Some days it seemed like things would never be the same for her...

and truthfully in many ways that's ok. She knows more about herself now and how 

strong she really is. She knows her limits and respects them. 

 She knows that it is her choice, 

who she invites into her life and who she does not. 

She loves greater than she ever has...

she is wise, she is beautiful!

We are so grateful that she is where she is in her life...she inspires us!

 

We moved PreSh up to Utah in January.

 It was so fun to get her set up in a new apartment! 

 She is so creative and had carefully planned how she wanted her room to look. 

 The best part was to see how happy she was and how ready 

she was to start this next phase of her life.

 

The Farmer made a plate for her with each member of the family represented... 

Something she could keep in her room to make her smile.

 

Saying good-bye was really hard. 

 I took this picture through lots of tears. 

The look for contentment in her face made it a little easier for us to drive away...leaving her behind. 

I love the way these two love each other! It warms my heart.

 She thinks he walks on water (and he does!) 

and he thinks she is amazing and wonderful...(and she is). 

 She also knows that he would protect her and defend her. 

 There is nothing quite like the love of a Father.

   

 A little reminder for her room... She's got this! 

 Amazing things are in her future! 

Oh how we love our Precious!!
