Near me.....

Hey everyone I know this is a strange title but I was not sure what to call it. I have been struggling toay missing my boy so much. The closer it gets to his birthday the harder it feels in my heart. I want to scream why God?? Why did you take my boy? But I trust God and I know he has a plan and that I will one day soon be in heaven with Jesus and Seth and so many other love ones. Well this post was suppose to be about things that I feel like Seth sends me to let me know hw is always near. I think firs of all my sweet puppy Mattie Ross was sent by Seth. He told me to name her Mattie Ross from one of his favorite John Wayne movies True Grit. She has been so much comfort to our family. She is the pickest eater I have ever encountered. She will not eat human food hardly or dog food. She mostly survives on sweet potato sticks wraped in chicken jerky. She loves them and she wil also eat duck sausages, She love ice cream also LOL. She smells everything and make this sound of disgust when she does not like the smell. She loves to play, sleep and lay in my lap. She just got spayed last Wednesday. She did great.
A lot of things have happened on the farm and in life for the past 9 months. Someone came in broad daylight and stole our bushhog and an older zero turn lawnmower. This occured in a week span of time. The dectectives took DNA samples of 2 drink bottles that were left at the crime scene.It had been at least 3 months and we had given up on ever seeing them again and a Randolph county dective called and had found them. Can you believe it? The Farmer had alread went and bought himself a new bushhog. He was out mowing the pasture in front of our house and when he was done he came in and told me he had to show me something that Seth had sent us. I could not imagine what it could be. We road our kawasaki mule out there to see. There stood a really big persimmon tree loaded with persimmons. Now let me give you a little back story we have been living up here on the farm for 28 year this pass May and the farmer has lived in the general area his whole life. We have gotten big rock from the area. The Farmer feed the cows hay in the very spot. There has never been a persimmon there ever. I have already got people wanting the pulp. I just can not decide if I want to do it this year. But maybe this is Seth telling me to just do it.
We also have a good amount of grapes.

  1. Hey Vicki, I am so glad you all have Mattie Ross. She is the cutest thing I've ever seen! I love her little black eyes shining from under all that dark brown hair. I'm sure she has brought you a lot of joy and comfort.

    That is so amazing about the persimmon tree. I believe you and know that things like that happen. Not long after Dan's grandson Luke died, Dan was sitting under a tree in the woods turkey hunting. He said Luke was on his mind...he was wondering if Luke would have liked to hunt and he wished Luke was there with him. He looked down and there was a little heart on his pant leg. It looked like a leaf that had been cut into a perfect heart shape. Dan took a picture of it. He felt like Luke had been there. But the persimmon tree is really amazing. Did Seth like persimmons, or persimmom pudding?

    I can't get over that equipment being stolen. And even more shocked that it was found. Bet you were both surprised. Most things like that are never seen again.

    Well I didn't mean to go on and on. I Love you Vickie...so much!!
