How do you know your a " Countrygirl"...

1. Perhaps, your children say YAS um , instead of YES mam....
2. When your livingroom carpet could grow the next garden.... I am teasing its not that bad...
3. When you would rather hang laundry , then use the dryer.
4. When writing real letters to your closest kindred spirits, beats emails...
5. When you love sewing your own clothing, instead of buying from LLBean, Lane Bryant or the like.
6. When denim is your favorite color.
7. When you grow your own food and can it yourself , instead of stocking up at Save-A-Lot.8. When making your own Bread from Scratch and Knead it yourself, instead of letting a bread machine do the fun stuff.
9. When waiting the hour or more for bread to raise is used to take time out to read to your children or pray.
10. When you know that all things Depend on God...The weather, A healthy Birth, A Happy Family...
11. When having over family means the joy of cooking a huge meal and also hearing the complements afterwards...
12. When your children play outside for hours instead of watching a TV set.
13. When you can remember all the old skits on Hee Haw....
14. When your favorite song, speaks of family, harvest or Tractors...
15. When the words "being in a pickle" ... means your in big trouble....
16. When going to bed at the end of a long day is heavenly bliss...
17. When the smell of fresh clean babies and diapers is wonderful and cherished.
18. When wearing bib's , doesn't mean to get the babies ready for dinner...
19. When hearing the rooster crow at 5am and seeing the sun dawning is
joyful...
20. When milking the goat , laying your head on her flank and feeling her warmth (especially in mid winter) you find peaceful time alone with the Lord and are oh so greatful for a moment of silence and contentment.
21. When the love , care and happiness of your husband, children and family and friends is the most important thing in your life...

I am sure there is alot more things that make us a " Countrygirl " perhaps you can add a few to the list... ( feel free to add in the comments section) Some are funny, some are just pure joy...

I today feel so glad that the Lord has made me a "Countrygirl" and that
I can do all the above and enjoy it.
