Chicama Run Family Farm

I will say that we are blessed with an incredible beautiful piece of property.  Sometimes however, we don't get the time to just sit back and enjoy looking at it - we are constantly going or doing something.

Early in the morning though I left to take a child to one thing or another and saw across the road a momma wild turkey and her babies.  She's been in the field for the last few weeks and it amazes me every time I see her because she still has the same # of babies with her!  This is actually a huge task (the canadian geese that brood in the pond up front loses all of hers each year!) - so I have to be impressed.

It's not the fact that there are wild turkeys out..... it's the fact of noticing the wild turkeys.  Many people drive up and down the road and never look to one side or the other - never seeing the beauty around them and that's a sad thing.

Did you know there are bald eagles around this area?  I've seen them on occasion and THAT is another amazing site to see.  Yet would you or your child even know what you are looking at if you looked up?

Just take a moment - notice what's around you - stand in awe at the beauty of it all and smile.
