I hereby command you to love your mom and dad regardless of their faults and to thank your appropriate deity on bended knee for having siblings available to help you out when your parents become old and enfeebled. Otherwise you would be in my position and going 'gah!'.
This has been a slight rant. But I am serious, too. If you have no siblings, marry well and thank the heavens for the support of a good person.
Gah!

Glad for a good hubby and thankful my daughter is old enough to drive and provide me a backup position....

Okay so an Update!! Right after I got done whining about not helping birth the baby goats they called and off I went cause their was still some daylight! And I actually got to hands on deliver this time!!!!! First baby needed a bit of pulling and out she came, second baby I did not deliver as it was breech (backwards). Sooooo much fun, I am covered in goat slobber as the mother kept licking me, and baby goat slime and even more baby goat slobber and milk. Think these jeans are going to need two washes! Wouldn't trade it for anything! Two girls one white and one sable. And I get to name them! There not even my goats and I am as happy as a lark!

Yayyy congrats! What did you call them. We want photo's please!

here is the wife giving the gang a treat she does this every day around 4:30 i never new they could tell time but i swear the are lined up and waiting on cue every day,,,, the young red hens are my own concoction they are hybrid crosses bread for egg laying i have been trying to copy the isa brown for a few years to be able to help under privilege family's here have a low cost high production layer there are two different broods here in the photo with the lager birds a two way cross and the smaller younger ones a three way cross i call them the Costa Rica comet lol a work in progress i have the fourth piece of the puzzle in the incubator from the eggs i brought from the u.s

your wife is very pretty so are the chickens, they look very huggable!

I....I....you can keep a chipmunk as a pet in the UK? Oh, dear, I think I'll move.... Karen

Yup. Can't you over there? That doesn't make sense if so, you guys can keep chimps as pets but not chipmunks!? Mad! Bill- yeah the poor horses look so sad in their eyes, it is heart breaking but at least they are well looked after now. They come in to the sanctuary in such a mess some of them. At least they don't end up in frozen lasagne!

Your command is granted, I will be thankful for my siblings even when I feel like they are the most annoying things ever!

Unfortunately when the birthing was over and when we were trying to teach them where the milk is, it was to dark for photo's. I promise though I'll have some very soon. Sorry. AND as far as names go, you can hate me Karen but i think I am going to steal your idea of naming them after flowers. We are on opposite ends of the country after all. I was thinking about naming the white one Iris and the brown one Susan or Susie after a Black eyed Susan.

We're still bickering over ducklings and kitten names!

I love Iris though that's lovely for a white goat.

Oh, then you can all help me name the twin boy and girl Peggy had a week ago. So far they are Bubba and Sissy (bill: these are traditional southern names siblings call each other, Bubba for the boy, Sissy for the girl, take offs on young children being unable to pronounce brother and sister.) it doesn't feel like their names, especially when I call Bubba Bubbey, which I think is a Yiddish name for a grandmother. I told my daughter we were calling the boy Squiddy and was shot down, so back to the drawing board...ideas?
