This is one of my favorite pictures of my Mom growing up. She is playing with her Dad’s socks. Adorable isn’t she?

Thanks to Uisce for creating Wordless Wednesday.

Wow, first!

That’s such an adorable picture! I love it. My WW post is about some baby birds the kids found. Kinda sad / maddening. :(

That’s a great one! I’ve got most of my family’s old photos…my favorite of my mom has her circa 1918 on a very fat pinto pony.

Thanks so much for your visit and kind complements. I am quite honored. I know how hard it is as one’s blog gets bigger to keep up with everyone, so I appreciate your kindness in coming to the SMB.

I seem to have a growing fan base with the Mommy bloggers, which sort of surprised me given that I’m a middle-aged childless lesbian goat farmer. But the kids enjoy looking at the animals on the farm, and the mommies get a little reading in and my Food Porn Friday articles have some good, if not entirely healthy recipes.

So, thanks so much for your visit and I will indeed blogroll you and return for a visit now and again.
