City Slickers

If you look City Slicker up in the dictionary, this is who you will see!

My dad asked us to put out three hay bales. How hard could it be?

It wasn't as easy as I thought it would be. The tractor got stuck in the mud. 

My responsibility was to open the gate and DON'T let the cows escape. One escaped. I managed to bribe her with hay to get her back in. 

Because the cows were so close we thought it would be best to cut the string first. Wrong! Hay was falling and cows were hungry. Lessoned learned. We didn't do that again. I laughed as I watched my hubby do this for the first time.

One cow did not want to stand down. I was not about to let her escape. I was going to be quick. However my feet were quicker than my boots. My clean socks landed in the mud. The rest of me followed. All I could do was laugh even more.

I'm sure she was thinking…That's what you get city slicker!

So now it's time to go feed the cows again. Trust me when I say it's going to be a lot easier today than it was yesterday. We make mistakes. We learn from them. We grow. I have no doubt God is going to turn us city slickers into farmers. ;)
