By last night, FarmBoy was up & running full steam. He mowed the yard, ran the tiller in between the rows of corn in the garden, picked peas, and played with the FarmHands. Thank the Lord! Nothing like a weekend of pain & fright to make you appreciate your spouse.The Hot Mama revolution has been loosing steam lately, but thanks to Sarah, things are getting warming up again. You might want to pop over & see what she's up to. I'll post about it soon. Haven't had an opportunity to take a picture just yet.

Just saw your comment over at daringyoungmom and had to visit. Sorry you had such an downer forth of july.
Love your little blog. I grew up on a farm and really miss it.
Glad that FarmBoy is back to normal (is he ever really normal though?)...and still praying that all the kiddos will be healthy and back to full steam this week, so you can kick them out of the house to play until they get hungry, are bleeding, or it is dark outside. That was mom's rule growing up a couple of summers...
And now for my question - why do refer to our kids as "growing like weeds" when weeds are the things that we cut back, yank out, spray with chemicals, all to kill them, and keep them from growing? Is it because kids, like weeds, seem to go from being teensy to huge overnight? Or, is it because we have some secret need to smash them down and do everything we can do put them through the emotional wringer before we thrust them into the real world?
So glad that FarmBoy is on the mend..Your crops are looking beautiful.
