We began farming in the spring of 2005 with two tiny banty chicks. Within the next few days, we added to our flock, and then we were officially farmers. Dusty's first hope for our farm was that the kids would learn how to be responsible in caring for something and knowing that it depended on them. Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves; do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others. Philippians 2:3-4
Even though this verse speaks of people, a farm full of animals is a great place to begin understanding that life is more about serving others and not thinking only of your own needs.
