thankful

As most you are aware i'm sure, last week was thanksgiving. At MSU we dont get the full week out because we have a fall break so we only get 3 days off from school instead of 5.  This is usually upsetting but since we had the egg bowl on thanksgiving day it wasnt that bad. My family came up to starkville for the game and we had dinner at my apartment and then proceeded to the game from there.  This week really got me to thinking about what im thankful for.  Like most people im thankful for my family but more importantly im thankful for my family that has already passed away.  My great great great grandfather who started the farm taught both his boys about the land and how important it is. My grandfather for passing that passion for farming on to my father and ultimately my Dad for passing it on to me.  Farming runs deep in my family and its not something that is picked up easily.  I have learned about the heartaches of rough times and i have seen the good years too.  I pray that one day i will be able to confidently make the decisions my dad does daily with even half the confidence he has. I hope that i have brought a few things about agriculture to yall to make you more informed about row cropping at least.  This is my last post for my class but i will try and keep it going and share interesting facts with y'all!
