Never more true words: Invisible. Backbone. Problem-solver. Figure it out. Last light on.

Spring is tough. Being a farm wife isn’t for the weak, tender, or needy.

I’ve always been an independent woman. Nothing calls for more independence than spring on a dairy farm.

Soldier-ON 💪

They call us “farmers' wives” like it's a soft title.

Like we just stand in the background.

But there's nothing soft about it.

We are the early mornings before the sun comes up and the last light on at night. We're raising kids in between chores, wiping tears with one hand and getting supper on the table with the other.

We keep the house running when the days don't slow down.

The meals, the laundry, the schedules-done whether we're tired or not. We handle the bills, the paperwork, the phone calls... the invisible load that keeps everything from falling apart.

We're the ones loading kids in the truck, running across the state for parts because something broke-again. We adjust, we figure it out, we keep it moving.

We are the backup plan.
The problem solver.

The steady place when everything else feels uncertain.
It's not easy.

There are days it feels like too much.
But we don't quit.

Because this life, these kids, our Husbands, this farm... they're worth every ounce of us.

So no, we're not "just" farmers' wives.

We are the backbone you don't always see.
And we carry more than most will ever understand. 🌾

134 cows 🐮 Yep! There’s likely more kindergarteners at your local elementary school than there are cows on an average farm.
