This week I am in San Diego for Pi Sigma Epsilon, PSE,
National Convention. As I left Cedar Falls, I went to my parents house so they
could drop me off at the airport. I brought a couple of friends with me to ride
along. As we got to the farm, one of my friends, Kaylin, mentioned that she
hadn’t seen a farm animal since she was 12. Um, WHAT?! I knew that this needed
to change, and needed to change ASAP. Kaylin is from a town outside of Chicago,
Illinois.
I took her up to our pasture so she could see our cows. It was
like taking a kid to a candy store; she was so excited! She loved watching the
calves running around playing with each other and was amazed by how big and
mean the bull looked.

I am happy that I was able to impact someone’s life with
something that is routine for me. Cows are part of my everyday life, especially
living on our family farm in Iowa. It is crazy how city living can be so
different than country living.
