Life life and Farm life!

Hello sweet ladies! 

My oh my........when life hits it's hit hard! First off the horse was doing very well this morning and that is good news! We ended up getting home yesterday after work and the girls went to go and help our friend with her horse. The horse had not been doing well and so we called one of our friends who knows a lot about taking care of horses. He told us to walk the horse and keep it from laying down. That meant we all had to take turns walking him and we did for 2 hours. He was doing better when we left and for that we were so thankful.

When we were at their place the sun was starting to go down. I was so wanting to be home and when I looked to the west........I could tell that  God was encouraging me with His beauty. When we put our desires aside and love those around us........God will let us always know that we have done the right thing. He painted such a beautiful picture......He knew I was looking........I said thank you......just when I needed Him, He blessed me!!

We got SNOW today!!!!!!!!!So beautiful!

When I woke up this morning I had kind of a heaviness on me. Didn't know why.........I just kept praying and asking Jesus for His presence. Later in the day I got a call........my Momma wasn't doing well. She is 79 and lives in a nursing home and has for the last 12 years....... not far from our home. She can't talk and has had dementia for some time.........but I still love that she is not very far from me, even though she can't really communicate other then by her eyes. The nurse was telling me that it wasn't good. I still had to finish my time at work and left to go see her soon after. It was hard to see my sweet momma when I came into her room. They have called Hospice to help us. I am asking the Lord to do what He sees best. It hurts me to even write, but I know that He has her best in mind. She asked the Lord for Him to exchange His life for hers, a long time ago, so for that I am so grateful. I can trust Him during this time. My heart hurts, so I ask for prayer please. She is so precious to me.  I would love to have her all better and have more years with her, if that is what the Lord wills. I am asking!

The trees were so puffy with the snow!

On top of that....... we came home after being with Momma and Squirt the little lamb wasn't doing well. I couldn't even question it.......I called my friend who gave him to us,  wrapped him in a towel and off we went. She gave him a shot, some med's and vitamins. He has labored  breathing and I am just holding on.......boy can life be hard sometimes. We are praying he doesn't get pneumonia. He is staying in our kitchen tonight and we are praying. Farm life isn't always the easiest......but it does have so many wonderful parts to it. 


Just a note before leaving for work ( wrote this post last night). Little Squirt didn't make it through the night. Not sure what happened, but things like this happen. Thank you for the prayers......you are all so precious! Linda
