I weighed the boys this morning. Empty stomach as usual. Some of these guys are growing at pretty big paces.

I’m not very good at determining what a good and healthy goat looks like. This is a video we took about a week ago of him playing around outside. He is one of my tallest goats. I don’t think he looks over weight. This is about 30-60 minutes after he was fed.

That that does seem like a lot, for 2 weeks. I kinda thought they may have lost weight since I recently weaned them.

Miss @Carla D,
Did you and your family have a white Christmas? If so, did you take any pictures?

There was a little white this year for Christmas. But, it was more brown than white. I didn’t take any pictures either. Christmas is one of the holidays that I struggle with. It’s not a happy time for me, not since the year 2000. I am trying to change that though. Having a young child, kinda gotta like expecting a three day blizzard on top ifthe rain we are supposed to be getting in a couple of hours.

Having a young child means that you have to move forward and make it a happy day for her. Over time, it will return to being a happy day for you too. Whatever happened to make it a sad occasion for you will still tug at your heart, but the joy you find in your daughter will help to counter balance it.

Thank you. I hope you are right. Christmas in 2000 is the last time my gramma went home. She had been battling cancer for several months. She fought to stay alive for one more family holiday. Her entire family was around her, even the across the country ones. She faded that night and was gone 36 hours later. Our family has never been the same.
Then my husbands mom passed away 7 years ago at this time as well.
Yes, watching Abigail glow and getting excited is a pretty good bandaid. For both me and my husband. These two picture are of Abigail and my only niece who’s 16 years old. They had so much fun together.
