"Passion is lifted from the earth itself by the muddy hands of the young; it travels along grass-stained sleeves to the heart."

"We don’t inherit the earth from our ancestors; we borrow it from our children.”

"Nature’s beauty is often found in its small, everyday details."

"One thing that will never change is the passage of time. Though the hands of those who have homestead before us can no longer build, through the preservations of their traditions, their stories live on."

"A good father is one of the most unsung, unpraised, unnoticed, and yet one of the most valuable assets in our society."

So today and every other day, thank you for being my best friend, my rock, and my husband. Thank you for being the most amazing father, provider, and role model for our boys. Thank you for everything you have done, continue to do, and have sacrificed for all of us. You never cease to amaze me and I'm so incredibly honored and humbled to call you mine.

Happy Father's Day to my husband and all the other dads out there! Thank you for everything you do for us all!

We harvested our first watermelon of the season yesterday. You know its a good one when you have to bathe kids and mop the floor afterwards. 🤣
