This is to explain whom I was growing up on a farm and whom I have become transpiring into city life. The events that took me from a very stable life as a child and a life in turmoil as a young adult. As I have matured and grown into adulthood, I have come to realize what stability meant to me in my growing up years. I am a stronger person, because of that stability. The Lord has been my rock throughout my life, and I give Him all the praise and glory for who I have become. Because of Him I made it through many tough times in my life. This journey has some lessons in it for the young and for the elderly. Mistakes I made along the way, events I handled like a champ and how each and every turn in my life has been a valuable lesson. It has all humbled me and made me who I am today. I have tried to live my life to the fullest each day. I have enjoyed each day, singing and dancing along the way. I thank the Lord for always loving me, forgiving me, and carrying me so many times throughout my life. I love you Lord.

About the Book
For author Lily Farmer, growing up on a farm in Minnesota was one of the most treasured times of her life. In How My Life Changed Moving from Farm Life to City Life, she narrates her story.
Meant as a legacy for her children, grandchildren, family, and friends, this memoir shares a wide range of anecdotes, thoughts, and lessons learned—ranging from her childhood, family, divorce, and her love of God and her Christian faith. Farmer tells how she had the most exciting and rewarding life a child could dream of as she experienced a host of adventures on the farm. She discusses how she made the difficult transition to city life when she was barely eighteen years old.
As she relays the importance of God in her life, Farmer discusses how she’s been poor, and she’s been rich. She now lives a comfortable life with a roof over her head and food on the table.
