Afternoon Sunset Bonding: Catching Catfish for a Simple family Dinner at the Farm

A pleasant day to everyone! Today, I just want to share a story about our simple bonding time this afternoon here at the farm. My husband suddenly thought of catching some catfish, so he and my daughter went straight to our small fishpond. As always, my daughter was the most excited one, she thought it was just another fun game. Kids really have a different kind of joy in the simplest things.

Since my husband’s niece, Aya, was also around, she joined in ad helped catch the fish. Our fishponds is mainly for our daily meals, but I’m also planning to sell some once we have a bigger harvest. For now, they’re still too small, but hopefully by Christmas season, they’ll be ready. It would be a big help for our holiday needs.

While capturing these moments with my phone, I suddenly realized now blessed we truly are. Our rice filed in back of our farmhouse is also almost ready to harvest, maybe next week. Seeing how the grains are becoming golden brings a different kind of joy It reminds me that hard work pays off in its perfect time.

The sunset earlier was also breathtaking. Its soft, warm flow reflected beautifully over the rice field. Moments like this refresh my heart, especially after busy days online and doing household tasks.. Good thing my husband mentioned that it’s already nearby. I’m praying that rice prices will be better this time because the previous price was so low around thirteen pesos per kilo only.

Life here in the farm teaches many lessons. One of the is that if you are hardworking and patient, you will always have something to live on. God really provides in many ways. Sometimes, the blessings are big, sometimes small but always enough. Watching my family enjoy the afternoon, seeing y daughter laugh while thinking the catfish were toys, and feeling the cool breeze before sunset, all of these remind me to appreciate the simple joys.

Now that the Catfish is already cooked, Let eat guys!
