My condolences on your loss. I have lost a niece and my fiancé has lost a sibling. Based on the beliefs of my people, it sounds like you have had a spiritual awakening. Especially if you stepped on a snake and did not receive a bite you are being called to something. Find an Elder or a priest and see what they have to say. Many Blessings to you.
And here I thought by watching your videos I’d learn to make better biscuits! And laugh! What I didn’t expect is you sharing your heart with us. And it touched home. I’ve lost two babies, one at 45 years old and it’s sad. And we’re going through all kinds of money and health struggles here in our home but keep trying to look to God and be hopeful. I just want to say thanks for being real. I’m hoping it turns out you’re my long lost cousin somehow LOL. Doing lots of digging on my genealogy and definitely have some down-home in my blood which I already knew! But my family is from western Kentucky so probably not. But I am related to either Daniel Boone or Davy Crockett or both, which is fun!! Thank you for sharing and touching my heart this morning and I’m so glad you’re keeping your feet firmly planted on the ground. Lots of people on social media seem to get a little carried away and that’s why I really don’t watch very much of it. Take care, Julie. But I go by Fannie Jane on social media because she was my great granny and I love everything I know about her!! And there is a biscuit story!!
I am very sorry for your loss. I realize I am a year late – but prayed for you nonetheless as I listened. Be well friend!
You are an awesome lady. & what you do with your channel matters! Believe that. I am new to you channel but you have taught me things I knew within g about and I a grateful! You have a kid soul and spirit that I needed to see and learn from. I grateful to know there are women like myself out there.
So sorry for your loss. I too have worn those shoes…time will improve your spirit. GOD gives special children to those he KNOWS can handle it…then when he realizes that our lives are already filled with many to love…he takes our little ones HOME to wait for us. GOD bless you. You are a very strong spirit and you have a very busy life. You are a Blessing to SO Many others. I thank GOD for leading me to your site…and I thank him for you and your beautiful soul, beautiful smile and for sharing your life with ME (US)
Hello Dear Lady, Your video means much to me….I believe your child will be waiting for you in heaven….and he/she is well cared for and you will be granted the opportunity to raise him/her in heaven……Bless you dear one!!!! Pastor Rick
Sounds like God was looking out for you and protecting you. I suspect that snake encounter was God preparing you for that loss to help you get get through it. I am so sorry that you had such a difficult loss. God made you a strong caring and wise woman to help you.
I am glad that your response to it all is so self empowering by realizing what is most important to you, and focusing on the things that are more positive in your life. Good for you and for your family!
It seems to me that you are able to be healthier by living in the moment and doing what you can do to have things work out well. I think that farming with livestock can allow us to connect more closely with life and each other.
My First pregnancy ended in Miscarriage and then had my beautiful Daughter then at 35 had my second miscarriage.
5 years ago it really hit me when before my dad passed he began to tell me of his Twin granddaughters coming to visit him!!! I had never told him the Dr told me I had been carrying Twins in the last pregnancy! I truly believe that that was them coming to him!!!!
I know this is an older video, but I just came across it. I love you and channel, and I want to express how deeply sorry I am for your loss. My first was a loss, my second was twins and we lost one super early on. I have 3 healthy, happy, beautiful, smart children today. You never get over it, but it will make you even more grateful. Stay strong mama!
❤ experienced my first and hopefully only a few months ago. I am a person of delayed reaction. The relationship didn't last either. And finding you and watching all your videos and then seeing this makes me love you more. You are an amazingly strong woman and inspire me.
I am so sorry for the loss of your little one. May the Lord continue to comfort you in your grief. I know that grief changes over time me the sharp edges of this pain be less now than they were the day that you made this video. Thank you for sharing part of your story. Thank you for your honesty and your sincerity. I'm so thankful that the Lord protected you with a copperhead snake. God bless.
Perfect post for this current time
So sorry for your loss and you are so brave … yes, I am tired of the social media as well. I have not watched national media news for over three months now. Don't miss it and less stressful. Young people are so impressionable and sad how they allow others to hurt them. God plans our journey in life, and we learn from life experiences.
I’m dumping Facebook
Thank you so much for being so real. This video and the one that you did when your husband was having a biopsy were just what I needed to hear this morning. You and I have a great deal in common, except that when it comes to homesteading, you have have had the strength and courage to brush past the nay sayers and I have let them steal my dreams. Now I am a 61 year old disabled widow who is living in a city that I hate because of the constant crime that is literally killing my faith in my fellow human beings. My support system is composed of only one friend who stops by and helps my with the chores they have at I can not do by myself. There are other people that think that they are helping, but their help comes with so many strings attached that it isn’t worth having. I am trying to survive, and I need every ounce of energy, every moment of time and every penny I have just to accomplish what is between God and I the things that are the most important. I have nothing left over to spend fulfilling someone else’s ideas of who I am and how I “should be living my life!” They know absolutely nothing about me. They have no t4clue what I have been through, what I have sacrificed, who I have become, and where I have drawn my lines in the sand and put my “NO Trespassing signs”. I have reached the point that I just want to sell my oo move to a cabin in the woods away from everyone. But after hearing you,I am asking myself What can do. Thank you so much!
You are a sweetheart . God Bless you and your family. I love watching your videos. But this one hit home. Thank you.
I'm glad to see peace in your heart and soul. Calming.
Praying for you for strength may God gid you and comforter you and strength. I appreciated you and love watching your Chanel. We have a Chanel too. So I understand you . God bless you .
Patara , YOU go girl..I love your channel ..I come here just to see you & enjoy what you have to say …It's very peaceful and GOD'S crace shines upon you & your family and will cont. to do so
GOD bless you , your dear family & your homestead ..hugs & Kisses ..GOD knws BEST .
Love the way you think ….May God bless you always ….
God sent an angel to protect you from the snake. I know it.
I am glad your wound is healing. Deepest sympathy for the loss. May Yehovah
Comfort yall
I know He's looking after you because of the snake.
Love your hair!!!
I had a miscarriage, it was so heartbreaking for me, you are right, you will always wonder..and never get over it, nor do you forget it.
I remember when I had a miscarriage. Very painful and then we lost a baby girl at 5 mos. Gestation in 2008. Prayers for you!!!!
I know this is an older video, but just wanted to add that you will know when God calls you home. Peace be with you and yours ❤️.
I’m writing this through tears. I’m very sorry, regarding your loss. I’m certain it wasn’t easy for you and your husband. (I’ve been binge watching videos this evening and just found this one). Sad. Because I’ve seen later videos and you look so happy, that’s good. I’m thankful you have those three handsome and healthy young sons!
I wrote a bit earlier about early days in my grandmother’s life. My mother was her fourth of nine children. Mom and my dad married during the Great Depression. They didn’t have a child for five years and I never did ask why, although they did help raise a nephew during part of that time.. They lost their first baby, a beautiful full-term boy, born the day after my dad’s birthday. (Would have been born on his birthday if my mother hadn’t had severe complications). If not for many people there praying for her and having two doctors, she would have died. She was a bed patient for three months.
Ten years later, after reading about C-sections, she had me. Dad was very afraid for her, but she insisted. She was in her late 30s. They never got over losing their first baby. With going through the depression, having so many things rationed: sugar, gasoline, tires, etc. in part due to WW II. Times were rough even after I came along because it was hard to live on a small farm income, which was sparse. Later, we moved into our small nearby town, where mom got a job and dad still grew crops on the farm then did part-time jobs in town during the winters.
People don’t yet know how hard they might need to work. I was fortunate to go to college. However, vocational jobs are badly needed, too!
I’m so thankful you are healing, although you will forever feel the loss.
Living on a farm, please be careful about snakes. God was watching over you when you came so close to the copperhead! I’m terrified of snakes. A bit earlier, I watched a video where you picked up a long snake that had ingested some of your bird babies! I would not have been so kind to that snake!
I intended to say I’ve been binge watching YOUR videos. I found your channel a couple weeks ago, being tired of social media. Thought I’d watched all of them, then this evening found MORE! I love your animals, your garden, and how you thoroughly love and enjoy your animals.
Ohhh those sweet goats! (I always wanted one)! When I saw the one of Gabriel helping hill the potatoes, it really brought memories!
Oh, Patara, I’m so sorry for your loss! Y’all are in my prayers.
