SteepedInSheep
True BYH Addict
I was going to wait until DH was at a good stopping point with the kitchen before asking if he would help me with sheep. I needed to separate all the ewe lambs born this year before the ram went in the main pen. We went to the sheep field to check on our pregnant cow and he asked if I wanted to separate then. Yes, please! We threw a few alfalfa flakes into a small, solid sided pen. Once all the ewes and lambs ran in, my daughter shut the gate on them. One by one, my husband grabbed all the ewe lambs (6) and we put them in the alley. We herded the babies down the alley into one of the ram's pens. Then let the ram and girls together. He was ecstatic, haha. None of the girls appeared to be ready for him but he still attempted. I made sure to write the date in my calendar and then calculate for the earliest due date so I don't get surprised next year.
My husband got the rest of the kitchen floor laid last night. It looks great. He is going to lay down some quarter round or something along the edges but otherwise, it's done. It's going to be so much easier to clean!
On Sunday night, our older children participated in the church Christmas program. I hadn't seen any of it so it was fun to be surprised. During "Away in a Manger" I heard my daughter switch octaves.
she wasn't even closest to the mic but her voice is unmistakable. I even got it on video. Both she and my younger daughter had a speaking part, which I didn't realize! I got both of those on video, too. I was a proud mama.
