    Sometimes I wish that RUclips had a heart for viewers to click on so that we could express how much we love certain special videos. This is one of those times. Your story clearly demonstrates the power of manifesting your desires. You planted a seed way back when you were 15 by repeating an affirmation of "Someday", and through the years that seed grew and grew and grew into this beautiful flowering plant that will continue to give you beautiful blooms (memories). Good job, Nicole, good job.

    "I'm not crying, YOU'RE crying!' 100% correct. Tears. So happy for you my friend! I was born in Nova Scotia and we had three acres up there (which wasn't much but our closest neighbors were over a mile away and we were right on the edge of a nature preserve so we really had the run of hundreds of acres). We spent the entire day outside, running through flower meadows and climbing trees and climbing "Fraggle Rock", a giant boulder covered in moss and mushrooms and catching tadpoles in ponds and streams. We moved to the US, and a suburban neighborhood when I was 6, and it wasn't really until now that I have a home on acreage again that I feel like I too, have come full circle.

I was tearing up all along with you - and yes, they were very happy tears. Thank you for sharing your story and your heart with all of us. The connection between you and the property is undeniable. God is surely good and he has blessed you with a great gift of a home, a love of flowers & plants, a big heart and the joy of sharing it all with the world.

The house and property have a whole back story. Many changes since the 60's when they were able to buy the property. BTW that coat is really cute!

    This is such a wonderful story, I've always had those same thoughts about my Grandma and Grandpa's old farm house. Grandpa passed about 2 weeks ago and those memories of us riding his dixon lawn mower or eating cherry tomatos off the vine while grandma wasn't looking are my favorite memories of us together. Its really special to see that its possible.

    Nicole, I just finishing watching your story about your childhood farm, and it just warms my heart. Because of Covid 19 I found Garden Answers and Laura led me to you, and then to Sabrina and Ian.
    I really enjoy all you your crazies, makes me feel right at home. I have 6 kids, 5 daughters and my youngest is now looking into a flower farm because of you girls. I also have 21 grand kids and 8 greats, so i am not a spring chicken. Tomorrow will be my 72nd birthday and I must admit I have bought way too many flowers and bulbs for my small yard. I have 11 kinds of seeds planted in milk jugs and many more to plant. Also, I am a bee keeper for the last 12 years. 2 years ago lost my husband of 51 years. Keeping busy with flowers has kept me sane this past year. Keep up the good work and we will continue to enjoy you shows. Sally Pipkins
