RE: DESPITE THE SETBACKS, what a harvest! GARDEN JOURNAL SEPTEMBER CHALLENGE

in HiveGardenlast year

It's great to hear from you @lizelle we hope you are doing well. We've not been posting so much lately, but only because we've been so busy with all that we do on the farm. It has also been a busy summer with us seeing the children so often this summer. Robin also had her best friend come in from Florida and stay for a few weeks, she just loved that visit.

We just got some big news. Our daughter Erica is having her first child, she is expecting a little girl right around the end of February. Robin has been on cloud nine since we found out.

What's a guy supposed to do when he has more tomatoes than can possibly be eaten, make a tomato cover pick.

God bless.

That's awesome news @thebigsweed, you must all be over the moon🤩
I'm so glad Robin spent some quality time with her best friend!
My family and friends have kept me sane, I'm truly blessed to have them. It's quite unreal just how devastating the loss of one's life partner is, but I have to carry on. I'm still going to my son in the Netherlands in less than 3 weeks' time. The change will do me good.
Enjoy what's left of the weekend🤗

Robin is on cloud nine with the wonderful news that our little girl is having a little girl of her own. The new addition will be our 8th grandchild and we feel so blessed.

Family and friends are so needed during such hard times and those of us who have both are the lucky ones, some folks have neither. Robin and I have talked many times about how our relationship seems to be a mirror image of our own relationship. Meeting at a young age and growing as a couple who's love for each other gets stronger with every passing day has been a precious gift.

Enjoy your visit to the Netherlands. Spending time with your son and daughter-in-law will be medicine for the soul!

Stay strong my friend, you know that your hubby is watching you from the heavens and he would want nothing else but to see a smiling face.

Much love to you and your family.
