A moment to blog

Life is just a whirl wind! Sharing with you is just one more thing to do. But I had to share this:

Last Saturday night my Finn ewe, Julia, had triplets. Very tiny, all of them, but the girl the smallest. She was so cold that I thought I would lose her. As I was so tired, I carried her up stairs and cuddled her in a towel and a blanket and sat by the heater. At last she warmed up and I made her swallow small squirts of warmed milk. By 2AM I thought that if I didn’t get some sleep I would be a basket case, so I put her in a box on my night stand next to the radiator. And as you see she survived!

She is now a house lamb. She thinks Brook is her mother. She is still very small but running around and entertaining us with her antics.

She follows me everywhere!

How on earth will I convince her she really is a sheep?
