Sweet Tres is definitely a daddy’s boy. You’ll almost always find him right by Dexter’s side, watching his every move and soaking up that comfort only a dad can give. 🐂💕

Right now, Tres is having a hard time being separated from his mama, and you can see it in his eyes. Big changes are tough, even for the bravest little guys. But with a daddy like Dexter standing strong beside him, he’s learning that he’s safe, loved, and never alone.

Let’s send Tres some words of encouragement today. 💙 He’s a strong little fella, and with time, patience, and lots of love, he’s going to be just fine.

Shane has a NEW PROJECT. You want to take a guess as to what this is????

I’m home from the hospital. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the likes, comments, prayers, and messages. I sat and read every single one of them, and it truly meant more to me than you’ll ever know. It made me realize just how many people care, and that alone lifted my spirit.

The last couple of days have been rough. I haven’t been able to keep any of my regular medicine down because I was vomiting, so mentally I’m pretty jacked up right now. On top of that, I haven’t had my hormones either… so it’s been a double whammy — emotions and depression all over the place.

But here’s the good part… I’m determined not to sit this one out today.

For the third day in a row, I have the most wonderful husband who went out and did all the animal chores for me. ❤️ And today, my goal is simple: get up, wash my face, brush my teeth, take my medicine, and get outside for some good vitamin D.

Maybe… just maybe… I’ll even get to see my granddaughter today. And that alone would bring my heart so much joy.

Thank you all for loving me through this. One small step at a time. 💛

Still in the hospital this morning, but I’m feeling so much better 🙏
I haven’t seen the doctor yet today, but I’m really hoping and believing I’ll get to go home today.

Thank you all for the prayers, messages, and love. Y’all have no idea how much it means to me and how much strength it gives me. I’m definitely on the mend and so ready to get back to my farm, my animals, and my own bed. 🐄🐓🐖💛

Hopefully the next update will be: “I’M HOME!” 🏡✨

Yesterday around 4:00, I had one of the tubes removed from my ear due to complications from surgery back in July. I got in my car and started the 40-minute drive home feeling completely normal. But as I was approaching my exit and turned my head to check oncoming traffic, the whole world started spinning.

I don’t even know how I made it from the exit to my house, but by the grace of God, I did. Once I got home, the vomiting started. Every time I opened my eyes, moved my head, or tried to stand up, the room would spin violently. After an hour or two of this, Shane had to call an ambulance.

They admitted me into the hospital, and I’ll be here at least another night. I’m hoping if I can keep everything down, I’ll get to go home tomorrow.

This has been scary and exhausting, but I’m so thankful for Shane, the EMTs, the doctors, and nurses taking such good care of me. And most of all, I’m thankful God got me home safely before things got really bad.

I sure would appreciate your prayers. I’m ready to feel normal again. 💕🙏

Four years ago today, I became the owner of Boyfriend — my Kunekune pig. 🐷❤️

He didn’t come to me as a blank slate. He already knew tricks… and within one week, he had taught my other two pigs how to do them too. I remember standing there thinking, “Well, look at this little teacher showing up and running the classroom.”

Boyfriend has been such a blessing to our farm in so many ways. He’s smart, gentle, entertaining, and full of personality. He’s brought so many smiles to visitors, so many laughs to our days, and so much joy to my heart.

Sometimes animals come into your life and you don’t realize at first just how special they’re going to be… and then they become part of your story forever.

Happy “Gotcha Day,” Boyfriend. Thank you for being such a wonderful part of Snead’s Farmhouse. 💙🐖
