Isabelle goes to her daddy's every other weekend, which she thoroughly enjoys! She can't wait to go over, and he lives in a cute little subdivision in a rural town (rural, but my, as with many little towns, it is growing quickly!).
Isabelle has the best of both worlds...truly. She may not know it now, but she has all the fun of country life over here, and all the fun of "city" life over there. I mean goodness, WE don't get the ice cream man all the way out here, but at her daddy's, it's fun to grab some allowance and rush out the door with her two step-sisters to flag down the delicious truck! Or hopping on her bicycle and riding down the sidewalks, saying hello to neighbors as she passes!
Each of her two homes are different, but each very rich in "things to do". She is very lucky!
The other day, I picked up Izzy from her daddy's. He leaned into my car and seeing that her two little brothers were in the backseat, he pulled out some money and handed it to her. "You go buy you and your brothers some ice cream at Sonic, ok?"
And we did! It was so very nice, and Izzy "bought" her brothers some ice cream, she felt very important, lol! It's the little things like that which Izzy will remember (and even her brothers, that Izzy's daddy is cool like that, lol!), and stir up nice memories of her daddy slipping her some treat money, and also very thoughtful to join together both her worlds with something as simple as ice cream. :)
About Me
- Prairie Moon Farm
- Warm greetings! I am a homesteader in Missouri, delighting in all things simple and earthy and good. I wear prairie skirts and go barefoot as often as I can. I adore my family, my darling Wee Babes, my garden, my dairy goats and numerous other farm critters, and my one pair of paddock boots (yes, those are my feet in the photo above *giggle*). I work with moon energy, metaphysical healing, native american shamanism, meditation, and herbal healing.
Come and take a walk with me...
..through the wooded path, past the creek to the clearing on the hill ......where the ponies buck and play, and fairies frolick in their manes. But, we must beware the figglesnitches! If you do not know what the figglesnitches are...well then, you must stay!
