It can be tough to reach these goals and find a good balance, but once you figure it out, life tends to go pretty smoothly!

Now, 20+ years later I am able to be a full time farm wife and I love it! Like you, I would encourage the younger ones to hang in there and to reach out to us seasoned veterans! :)<br />-LoriAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7083874656926823982.post-57304330040270480452014-04-18T19:34:27.900-05:002014-04-18T19:34:27.900-05:00Great list!

We are at a point in our lives where my Farmer is in the prime of his life, our kids are almost ready to start taking an active role on the farmer (oldest is in college, next oldest is in HS, then there's more but that a whole other story!) I have been that raising the kids and now working town wife. We've been blessed that there's always been enough help. My Farmer's dad passed a few years ago, its all on him and he dreams too and worries that he won't be able to pass on the farm to our kids with as much growth as his dad and granddad did, so you are exactly right supporting their dreams is probably one of the biggest things we can do as their wives, in my opinion!KHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06364831316574528611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7083874656926823982.post-12933538294315831802014-03-28T21:36:30.795-05:002014-03-28T21:36:30.795-05:00Excellent perspective...wish I would've read t...Excellent perspective...wish I would've read this 10 years ago!

This post was just what I needed to read and such a good reminder. So many of your posts hit so close to home! I've been dating a farmer for about five years and before meeting him, I definitely fell into the "city girl" category. There's been a lot of learning and getting used to things over the last few years, but I wouldn't trade it for anything. Some of my favorite date nights are the ones spent out in the tractor.
