  • Summer is slowly drawing to a close here on the farm friend and I invite you to enjoy these peaceful slow lived moments together with me.
    Look out for the mama warthog and her not so small babies anymore. There are also 3 mama hens and 10 baby chickens giving us endless moments of delight at the moment. Feeding time is a thing to behold.
    I think family is important and we should cherish the gift that they are in our life.
    Spending time together should never be replaced by other things.
    My 85 year old mom is still busy with those hands every day. We have both started a new crochet project and we will keep you updated. The mosquitoes and flies are becoming less of a problem as it becomes cooler.
    Sunday after lunch my eldest son and I usually love to play a game of scrabble while having a coffee. These are the moments you always cherish.
    I’m enjoying the new little area in my garden. So does the pollinators. My zinnias are so pretty and soon the marigolds will be showing off their bright yellow blossoms.
    All the sweet lingering moments in our days that go so quickly.
    Thank you for being here….
    "The best thing to hold onto in life is each other." -Audrey Hepburn-
    “Having somewhere to go is home. Having someone to love is family. And having both is a blessing.”
    “Our most basic instinct is not for survival but for family. Most of us would give our own life for the survival of a family member, yet we lead our daily life too often as if we take our family for granted.” - Paul Pearshall -
    “A house is built by hands, but a home is built by heart.”
    🙏🏻 “Therefore don’t be afraid, you are of more value than many sparrows.”
    Matthew 10:31 (World English Bible)
    🙏🏻I pray you have a safe place to call home and are having peace in whichever season you might be finding yourself right now.
    Kind regards,
    Elmirí🌺

    Dear Elmiri , In your surroundings, there are the most beautiful skies ! I really like this thought about the family bond and your universe is really the demonstration of this love. Such a precious good. A big hello to your mom and your son. I like to see in your videos that they are an extension of you. As the sun rises at home, I send you my best thoughts. 🌿 Gaddielle 🌿

    Always a pleasure to see you, your family, and farm animals. I sent this video and a couple of your videos to a friend who wanted to see the warthogs roaming free on the farm. She was commissioned to do paintings of the animals she saw on a recent trip to Africa. Her latest painting was of warthogs. Can't wait to see the finished crochet project. Love the extended garden and stunning zinnias! Recently bought seeds of the same color. Thought the butterflies would like. Will be sowing the seeds soon....Spring is here on the West coast. Much rain came this year. Thank you, as always! :)

    • @TheFarmSparrow
      @TheFarmSparrow  11 месяцев назад +1

      Likewise Ellen…when I see your comment and hear some news from your home, it is like a ray of sunshine. I almost didn’t have the pleasure of some zinnias this season, but fortunately it worked out well in the end. Like you suggested, I moved mine nearby with this new extension and they are much more in my line of vision now. I trust you will have the joy of watching your own very soon. I love watching the pollinators as they busily move from flower to flower. Thanks to the rain you can look forward to a beautiful spring. Sending love and hugs.

    I was feeling anxious this morning and your video brought me back to peace.
    So happy to see your Mother. You are so blessed to have her with you. I am 78 so not far behind her.
    My Mother passed when I was 40. She could knit and crochet so beautifully. Her sweaters were to die for. I still miss her every day.
    The chicks always make me smile. And Henry is so proud. Love to hear the Ladies chatter.
    The sheep, your garden, all so wonderful.
    Thank you so much for saving this day for me. I shall watch this again this afternoon after I come back from buying gas and groceries. You know what I mean. lol

      It warms my heart that you can be encouraged in this way…. I can only imagine how you must miss your mother.
      Life is so fleeting and having someone to share it with in various relationships is such a wonderful thing.
      May you have a blessed weekend, a good rest and have some special time with someone maybe?🍃💝🍃 Warm virtual hugs from me.

    Beautiful and true! Delighting in viewing this and seeing scenes which remind my husband and I of Australia in this season where summer tries to hold on. We are in Sydney and when you showed some older farm buildings and the wide sky, the resemblance is quite striking to us. The wild boar we have in rural and remote Australia wouldn't be relaxed around people in the way your warthogs appear to be. I love seeing you and your mum crochet together. My dear mum is 87 and in care now but she has her 91 yo sister there too. My sisters and I have been blessed and they are enjoying much reminiscing back in the village of their birth. Thank you for the uplifting and inspirational experience which is a constant from your wonderful channel . 💐❤ 🙏🌹🌺🌼🌻

    • @TheFarmSparrow
      @TheFarmSparrow  11 месяцев назад +1

      Our countries seem very similar in many ways Helen…. I saw a movie about your wild boars way back and they seemed very aggressive. These warthogs are usually very wary of us humans and will run away, but this one sow has attached herself to our flock of sheep and the surroundings of our homestead. Every time she has a new litter of piglets she sort of hangs out here more often. She doesn’t seem to mind us, but I make certain that my Yorkies stay clear of her and we sort of have an understanding…that being said, one should always remember wild animals are extremely unpredictable and that makes them dangerous and not to be trifled with. We have learned a lot by observing how things work in nature (still learning) and once you understand their ways, you learn to respect each other and live together in better harmony. Again, that is the ideal, but in practice it sometimes turns out to be very difficult. Your mom is a ripe old age and her having her sister around must be a huge blessing. We indeed have so much when we have one another.
      Thank you for also allowing me a glimpse into your life…give my regards to your husband. Blessings. 🙏🏻☕️🤗🌹🌹🌹🌹

    Oh how your Zinnias look! I'm having to grow mine in our very long greenhouse, a 75ft lean-to against a sunny brick wall. But enough of me. Your chicks and ducklings, or are they goslings look so happy pecking around your flower patch. How beautiful is your garden and flower patch to-be. Every Friday evening is a blessing when I visit your home and happiness. Mama warthog steer a clear path from! Warthogs no matter how tame can turn on you. Last year ours got roasted. And Mama hog was delicious. Your chickens see you as their Mama. What a lovely sight. Thank you for sharing your beautiful, though hard working lifestyle with us. Look after yourself and each other, and many blessings to you all. Much love from Wendi 🌻🌻🌻🌺🌺🏵

      Much love and blessings to you too Wendi…thank you for always taking the time to pop in and say hello. Yes, you are right. They are wild animals and should as such be treated with a healthy dose of respect. If they feel threatened, they could inflict severe harm with those tusks. May your zinnias grow well in that greenhouse. 🙌🏻🌺🌺
