To create our own bliss and acknowledge the wonder around us is our greatest blessing and our best gift to the world. I read in a book a few years ago, "we live in a gilded world of our own making," and I love that! We choose what we see, how we will respond, how we "process" everything around us. Thank you so much for that! So profoundly grateful for the opportunity to read this post. What an amazing story!

Knowing it will be a hot day, I can still feel the coolness of the early morning. .....Watching our chickens free range in the yard, each so beautiful and different...., and so much more. It doesn't take an aneurisym to see the "STUNNING" in your life, just looking and listening and paying attention to where you are. Thanks for the reminder.

I'm a lifetime country girl, and thank God for everyday I am alive to enjoy my family and surroundings. I think you've brought to light for many people, what a blessings the small things of life are. I've already informed my sister of this site, and will tell many more so they can also share. Thoroughly enjoyable. The photo's are very impressive, as well as your writing. Keep up the good work, and positive attitude. Country life can be hard, but I'm sure you are the type of person who will enjoy every moment, as well as your children. They will thank you when they grow up for bringing them to the Slanted Little House. As a child, we also had a cellar with a chain on the door, and in the winter, it was filled with lots of apples from our own orchard, pears that came from our farm, and all the canned goods that my mother prepared, the aroma was breath taking when you opened the door. Oh What Memories. Speaking of small towns, and country living, just from your writing, I know the family you speak of. I hope you will always be AT HOME IN ROANE COUNTY.
