I hadn't thought about it that way, but it makes perfect sense. And yes, we are part of the luckiest :)<br />JeansBootshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07293773738140625108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3444538614320838604.post-23649438368832555802013-08-28T16:31:38.429-04:002013-08-28T16:31:38.429-04:00:) I have no doubt the Roberts girls already have ...:) I have no doubt the Roberts girls already have the start to the strongest of rafters!

The world we live in today is filled with so many dangers and odd influences! This makes me think of another "wisdom"..."It takes a village to raise a child". I believe this so strongly, and think about it more and more every day. When they are young, you create the village for them, surrounding them with good friends and good people who will provide strong examples and set them up to seek life's successes. That's why I love the livestock industry so much. There isn't a better village, or family, in my opinion. As they grow, they start to create their own village, and those people mold, guide, and influence them just as much, if not more. I wonder how much my "villagers" realize the roles they play in my life and my child's life. I know I don't always think about the villages I am a part of, and how I could make them better.
