4-H and flowers

Posted By on March 28, 2009

Spring has sprung here in Tennessee.  I pass this field of Daffodils every day I leave the farm.  It is so beautiful.  Everything is turning green and promising new life.

We went to the 4-H extension office yesterday to turn in Samuel’s yearbook. The agent graded it right then and there and he has the highest score!

He received the Purple award and will get his ticket to the bowling party. He was so excited! I think the bowling party was the main incentive to completing the task. What ever it takes, right!? I am very proud of him. He was very focused and task oriented. That is the first time I have seen that level of intensity so it is exciting for both of us.

 

Y’all come back now!

About the author

I am a work at home Mom of two of the best boys ever. I am a Nationally Certified Master Groomer and have been grooming out of my home for the last 12 years. We have recently moved to Greenbrier Tn on 27 acres. We are new to the "homesteading thing" but we are excited to learn. We hope to be filling our farm with many critters and a garden. We are homeschoolers so everything is a unit study to us. It has been fun to see the boys help Dad cut firewood. We will also be learning how to build a chicken coop in the near future as well. I have been making handcrafted soap lately as well and I am seeing an improvement in that business as well. It is all natural vegetable and goat milk based soaps. Can't wait to share this experience with everyone.
