Seeing Green

The big day has come. The tractor and planter are here. The tractor came from somewhere in Nebraska and the planter from around here. After haircuts Tuesday night we went to see the tractor. Goll now don't I sound like a red neck...an outing to see the tractor, sounds like i should be saying I need to run to the out house a minute. Really tho, if you're reading this an not familiar with the entire farming and think I'm some red neck chick allow me just to say that everything, well most of it, all starts with the farmer. And actually now days it's not only what you eat but how you fuel you're car!! (right Larry) I'm really hoping and thinking that planting should go much faster this year. A new tractor and a 12 row planter should cut there planting time in half. Now if it would ever warm up. All of this being said C'man got to go with DH to get the tractor. It was at a local (45 min drive by car) implement getting all the computer stuff set up on it. They then had to drive it home. 2 hrs later they pulled in to the driveway and I'm going to see if i can upload the video. C'man was just THRILLED.
Watch the video before you read all of this next part. So anyway, watching my little boy stretch, climb out of the tractor, covered in Doritos, just made my heart skip a couple beats. Isn’t he just such a big boy. He really is such a blessing to not only us, but everyone who’s life he comes in to. I thank God every day for him and his birth mom. I don’t think a week goes by that I don’t think and wonder about how she’s doing and thank her so much for the beautiful life she gave us. He makes us laugh so hard we cry. He has a great personality, so easy going. He plays by himself so nicely and all his toys have names of people that are in his life. He asks about his g'parents all the time and wonders where they are. He wonders if JoJo will be at G'pa and G'ma's and thinks Jesus lives where my sister lives. He talked for about 1 week straight about cousin mEEEgan and thinks every blue pickup is Uncle David coming (v is silent). He has to feed the cows and gather the eggs and thinks the chickens are wiping there feet b/c they are dirty. He’ll ask where Maxine is but remembers she went to the doc to get better and that’s heaven. He says his prayers so sweetly that I just want to cry. He thanks Jesus for so many of you by name. But one night I asked if he loved me and he said no. He wasn’t loving anyone, when I finally asked who he loves he said ‘JoJo and Uncle Danny’. He thinks democrats are ewww and publicans are yeah….he preaches like a politician and bats those big blue eyes promising the world. Children sermons are filled with stories from him often about how mommy turns off the TV and that he has a MooMoo that he sleeps with. He’s concerned about his sister even tho some days he asks me to put her to bed. I wish you all lived closer b/c I’m sure he’d have a story about you too!! Miss A is quite the little farmer too. She loves the tractor so much that the night we went to see it she clung to the steering wheel so tight DH had to peal her hands off. When he came home with it yesterday she stood by the window and just stared at it in aww. I’m sure when she starts talking she’ll have lots of funny things to tell us too. Although I’m thinking she’ll be quieter then C'man (stop the yeah right look who her momma is) I think she’ll run the campaigns for C'man and make sure everyone is doing just what she wants them too. good for you all if you stuck with me to the end of this. I'll climb off my soapbox now. A guy is coming to fix our dishwasher that was part of a recall and i got medicine for my cold and it's tearin my gut up. Oh and i just have to add ONE MORE thing.....tomorrow we leave for the weekend. Our dear friend is GETTING MARRIED!! I'm so excited and happy for him. I'll tell you why in another post!!
