another reason to celebrate this day

It is strange to celebrate a completed harvest in February, but this year that is the case. Thomas and Terry harvested the last of the corn and are feeling good about it. It's been a constant concern for them and they are happy to be relieved of that concern. Thomas began the harvesting as days would permit, then the last couple weeks Terry has run the combine and Thomas ran the trucks. We all worried about Terry's health, but he seemed to do well. He was worn out and ready for bed each evening, but he was able to continue the next day. I think sometimes it's the fact that he is up and doing something that makes him feel good. Certainly getting his crop harvested makes him feel good. Though I think that, I also know that it is because of blessings from a loving Heavenly Father that he is able to do anything and everything that he does do. I know that Heavenly Father was also helping Thomas as he was a one man show for awhile.
Now, just around the corner is preparing the ground and planting the crop. We are praying for as successful of a beginning to planting as there was to the end of the harvest.
Anyone ready for another Thanksgiving dinner? We do give thanks that our corn is finally harvested. What a relief it is! It may have even turned out better than we thought! We do have much to be grateful for!
