As I knelt there, holding Liam close, a wave of emotions washed over me—pride, gratitude, and an overwhelming sense of love. Here was my little boy, quietly carrying a dream I had long abandoned, one that I hadn’t realized meant so much to him.
Grace explained that she’d stumbled upon my diary in Liam’s room and, after some heart-to-heart talks, Liam had shared his plan. Despite his age, he’d put his heart and savings into this project, determined to see me smile and reconnect with something just for me.
The weight of everything—my busy schedule, the nights I couldn’t tuck him in—suddenly melted away. It dawned on me that Liam saw more than I ever gave him credit for, sensing my stress and unspoken sacrifices. And instead of resenting them, he’d tried to give something back, something so uniquely thoughtful it left me speechless.
Liam glanced up, nervous but hopeful. “Do you like it, Mom?” he whispered, his voice barely audible.
I hugged him tightly, struggling to find words through the tears. “I love it, sweetheart. More than you’ll ever know.”
That evening, I promised to set aside time for sewing lessons with him, to explore this space together, and let this be our haven—our shared secret, a place just for us. The gift he’d given me was so much more than a room; it was a reminder of the dreams worth holding onto and the love that made everything worth it.
I recently spent $6,500 on this registered Black Angus bull.
I put him out with the herd but he just ate grass and wouldn’t even look at a cow.
I was beginning to think I had paid more for that bull than he was worth.
Anyway……I had the Vet come and take a look at him.
He said,, the bull was very healthy, but possibly just a little young, so he gave me some pills to feed him once per day.
The bull started to service the cows within two days……. all my cows!
He even broke through the fence and bred with all of my neighbor’s cows!
He’s like a machine!
I don’t know what was in the pills the Vet gave him … but they kind of taste like peppermint.
