The Holland garden!






We are enjoying weeding our garden and still waiting to eat from it but we know it will be worth it! We have planted pumpkin, watermelon, cantalope, squash, corn, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, peas, beans, and zuchini. Today Lennon and I spent two hours weeding. She was great and has funny names for things like zuchini. It is zoo candy to her! ha! We also put a natural weed block down today too. Newspaper and pinestraw. It works pretty good and is safe for us all!!! Hope all is well in everyone's world and for anyone in the mood to weed just come on over!

Mother;s Day




Today was a beautiful day here in Tally. The girls and I went to the farm to spend time with my mama, because Brent is working. It was a great day of pretty much doing nothing!
As I am sitting in my quite house tonight thinking about being a mother I can't get Reba Mcentire's song "I'll keep on loving you" out of my head. It's a great song and makes me think of my mom and being a mom myself. I thought I would share.
The lyrics are...

Love takes the patience of Job
That's what my mama always said
Faith is the belief in something more than what you know
That's what the Good Book says
You gotta play the card's you got
Who know what fate is holding
At times you gotta go without knowing where you're going

That's why I keep on loving you
I keep loving you
Through the baby don't leave mess
and never will agains
and I promise to's
I keep on loving you

Lord knows we've had our share of fights
Our sleepless nights, our ups and downs
We've had plenty and then some of baby I'm gones and turnarounds
Sometimes I swear it might be easier to throw in the towel
Someday we're gonna look back
Say look at us now

Through the I take it backs... I didn't mean it like that's
I'd never hurt yous... Oh, I keep loving you

I keep loving you

These lyrics mean so much to me because all that I put my mama through she still keeps lovin me! Thank you so much Mama, Donette (mom), Christi(mom) and any other mom out there that loves me and has helped me become a mother.
And thank you Lord for blessing me with ALL the mother's in my life and blessing me with my two wonderful girls and getting the chance to be a mother. Hopefully I can be as good as a mother that the mother's in my life have been to me.

My 30th B-day!

So yesterday was my 30th birthday and I did a lot of reflecting.

I don't feel old until I realize how old my kids are and what they are doing in life at the moment. I feel like it was just yesterday that I was doing the same they are doing now. It's just weird! HA!
Then I think about what life I have lived and it sure has been a crazy one. I am moving on to this next decade with the mind set of still learning and growing but remembering what struggles I have had and to make an effort to remain in the moment. I am not going to worry so much anymore, I am going to simplify more, workout and take care of me more, love me more, spend more time with my family, read the bible more, and get more involved to spreading HOPE!
Thank you to everyone in my life who has always supported, loved, lifted my up or brought me down cause I really think I would not be in this joyous place right here, right now.
I love you all sooooooooooooooooo much!!!!

xoxo,
Amy
