"December, being the last month of the year, cannot help but make us think of what is to come." — Fennel Hudson
We made it to December y'all. I don't know about you but this is time of year I love to reflect on the everything we did and experienced in the current year. It helps me as we look forward to what the new year has for us, what adventures await us, what we could accomplish on the farm and in our business. I love to dream up our future and if this year taught me one thing... my dreams don't always come to reality. BUT that is not always a bad thing. I am really learning the meaning of contentment. Being content with the size of our farm, the amount of animals we have, the size of our business, and much more. My big dreamer self would have us quitting our 9-5's and enjoying life on the farm full-time... well you can probably guess that is not a reality for us... yet. 😉
I am not a big New Years resolution person but I do enjoy having a Word of the Year. As we get closer to the close of 2023 I start to pray and reflect on what God would have me to focus on in the upcoming year. He laid a word on my heart a few weeks ago but you will have to wait for an upcoming blog post to find out what word I chose for 2024. Do you have a word for the new year?
