We created senior portraits for a girl from our church a couple weeks ago. We were out at their home, using their land, creating portraits with her horse. As we crossed the yard behind the house toward the goats, the mom began apologizing for her clothes line filled with jeans.
"It doesn't bother us." My Beloved told her. "She'll probably want to take a picture of it for her blog."
The woman was appalled. Why would anyone want to take a picture of someone else's wash line?
For one simple reason, really.
In at least a few ways, she was living the life we want to be living.
Sometimes, I miss living on a farm. Posts like this remind me of what we're missing.
