The room with the stove is going to be so cozy & yes there's chaos to have change. lol Good timing with the Christine & 'the boys' arriving. I need to find the book about the Elf On The Shelf. I remember seeing him in the 60's but never knew the story. I've only heard how good things come from him & he's used as a bargaining chip by parents.<br />So many calves to care for but I know your heart is in it. Do take care Julia & enjoy some warm family downtime. All the very best this 2015!<br />Hugs CynthiaKyrotimehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07328503785870363796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6876827638819064500.post-45206446971711376762015-01-05T20:14:41.076-04:002015-01-05T20:14:41.076-04:00Oh Julia.

I wish you bottomless bowls of yummy chicken soup and the warmest of firesides, a few extra pairs of willing, hardworking hands on the farm for these hard times, and a bright blue sky-full of healing love whooshing over you all the energy and lift you need. So sorry for such a rough patch. You look adorable all wrapped up in your warmies:) Glad someone was with you the whole time.<br />Love and get (and stay) well prayers,<br />JenniferJennifer Richardsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04305032927925322733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6876827638819064500.post-75600345435737139612015-01-05T19:13:37.157-04:002015-01-05T19:13:37.157-04:00So sorry you've been under the weather!

Like everyone I don't know how in the world you do all that you do and never complain.
