You know you’ve had a “good” week when you end up doing the laundry earlier than normal. I usually do laundry on Sunday. It’s our down day and we just do the minimum amount of work required so we usually don’t end of going through too many changes of clothes. This week by today, Friday, […]
Moms Just Ask for Help
Darleen was looking for a story about lessons learned being a mom and a dairy farmer. Immediately this exchange with a friend of mine came to mind. First of all, I think the most important message below is to reach out and ask for insight from the moms around you! I was so proud of […]
How Do You Keep Farm Kids Clean?
