This morning looks different than it once did.
I’m sitting with my coffee, the Christmas tree glowing in the quiet, waiting for our children to wake up.

Years ago this house would have been buzzing by 5 a.m.—footsteps pounding, whispers turning into shouts, joy spilling over before the sun even thought about rising.

Now, there’s stillness.

And in that stillness, I’m reminded of something farmers know deep in their bones:

Seasons change—and that’s not loss, it’s legacy.
The early mornings don’t disappear.
They transform.

What was once excitement becomes reflection.
What was once noise becomes gratitude.
What was once rushing becomes presence.

Farming teaches us this better than anything else—
to honor the season you’re in without trying to rush back to the one that’s passed or sprint ahead to the next.

This quiet moment?
This is part of the harvest too.
Your greatest asset isn’t just what you produce.
It’s the life you’re building in the spaces between the work.

THE FARMER'S GREATEST ASSET
I was airlifted with a fractured hip, broken wrist, and a brain injury. For 9 months, I couldn't walk. But that accident saved my life.

Not because of the surgeries or the recovery. Because it forced me to stop. To pray. To realize that everything I knew about running this farm was locked in my head - and we almost lost it all because of it.

My wife, a physician, and our three kids were left scrambling through decisions I'd always made. The farm that's been in my family for over 100 years nearly slipped through our fingers because I thought I had to carry it all alone.

That's when I realized: YOU are your farm's greatest asset. Not the land. Not the equipment. YOU. And if something happens to you, what happens to everything you've built?

I created a workbook to help you document what's in your head before it's too late.

YOU Are the Farm’s Greatest Asset
Every sunrise, every season, every harvest…
There is one thing that keeps the farm alive: YOU.
The land may feed the world, but it cannot run itself.
Your strength, your dedication, your resilience—
that is what keeps the farm moving forward.
But even the greatest asset needs care.
Your health,
your well-being,
your mind and body
are the foundation of everything you do.
Choosing wellness isn’t selfish—
it’s essential.
Your farm depends on you.
Your family depends on you.
YOU depend on you.
So take time to rest.
Nourish your body.
Support your mental and emotional health.
Honor the work you do by taking care of the person doing it.
Because the truth is simple:
The farm can’t run without you.
And you deserve to thrive—not just survive.
The Farmer’s Greatest Asset… is the farmer.

Your body is the home to your soul. The temple of divine light. Honor your soul and let your souls purpose shine.

This moment I caught of our older two talking together with their show heifers reminds me: the farm’s greatest crop will always be the kids we raise on it.

I love you my beautiful daughter for cooking a hiot meal for the field. But, dad didn’t get to looking this good by not eating. This guy needs a little more to eat.
