Welcome to American Way Farm
Way "up nawth" in northern NH, where the snowdrifts are big enough to have their own zip codes, life on the farm comes with equal parts work, wonder, and comic relief. I’m Sandy Davis—farmer, storyteller, and frequent victim of livestock with too much personality. Here’s where I share the true (and mostly true) tales of everyday life on American Way Farm—the moments that inspired my book Between the Fenceposts.

Sky Angel Cowboy: A Young Man’s Call That Touched the World

Every once in a while, something comes along that stops you in your tracks and reminds you what really matters. The “Sky Angel Cowboy” video does exactly that. It’s a recording of a Logan Henderson, a young boy who called in to a Christian radio station to talk about God — and in just a few short minutes, he delivers a message that humbles even the most seasoned believers.

His voice is young, gentle, and full of innocence, but what he says carries the kind of truth that only comes from a heart completely open to faith. He talks about losing his little calf and how his dad had to put it down, and through his tears he compares it to what God must have felt when Jesus died for us. There’s no fancy theology, no big words — just a child’s pure understanding of love and sacrifice.

It’s one of those moments where you realize how easily we complicate things that are actually simple. Faith doesn’t have to be polished or poetic. Sometimes the truest words come from someone small enough to still believe without question.

I’ve heard a lot of sermons in my day, but few have hit me like Logan’s voice. It’s a reminder that God doesn’t just speak through pulpits and choirs — sometimes He uses a child’s heartbreak to remind the rest of us what grace really looks like.

If you haven’t seen the Sky Angel Cowboy video, take a few minutes and do it. And maybe keep a tissue handy. It’s a powerful reminder that faith isn’t complicated, love isn’t logical, and even the smallest voices can carry the biggest truth.

Sometimes all it takes is one little cowboy to point us back to heaven.
