It is May already! That is hard to believe considered in many ways it still feels like March. It has been busy several months for our family, despite the quarantine, with lots of farm work in the warmer weather and finishing school for the year and supporting some family through some health struggles.
So since pictures tell a thousand words and I love pictures anyway...here is a Smith family update from the past few months!
 |
| We have lots of babies born at this time of year. |
 |
| I love spring and all that it represents. |
 |
| Working and weighting year-old calves. Joel's job is to push the cattle up the lane to be worked. He is a very hard worker. |
 |
| Joel, Olivia, and I prepared to get up a group of cows and calves to sort. |
 |
| 1 of our 7 bottle babies. He's so tiny! |
 |
| Joel and Dad weighing calves. |

Dad and Mom looking over calves ready to ship.
|
 |
| We shipped a load of cattle up north a few weeks ago. After feeding them for months, the excitement was high as we loaded. |
 |
| The truck. |
 |
| Right before the cattle left, we gathered for a quick picture. |
 |
| Teaching English to Joel. I've learned more teaching him than I remember from my own schooling! |
 |
| Daily laundry. |
 |
We celebrated Joel's 10th birthday this week!

It has been a wonderful few weeks of spiritual and physical grown for our family. It isn't easy, there are a lot of struggles as we grow together, but God is good and so there is never a wasted season.
