Kayla's goat

Recently my granddaughter Kayla, purchased a milk goat for reasons only she can tell you. At 15 years old, I think it shows great responsibility to get up early every morning to milk and then milk again every night. A job I would not want!! Life on the farm can be full of pleasures that people in the city will never experience. Taking care of God's creatures in return takes care of us. I must say, I was a little skeptic of tasting the milk, but it truly tastes like cows milk to me, and from research I've done, it's actually better for you. The first step Kayla has to do is get "Sugar" on her stand to get ready to milk!

We recently celebrated my mother's 89th birthday. If I had to choose one word to describe my mother, it would be LOVE. She loves everybody she meets. In all of my 57 years, I have never seen my mom in a bad mood. I have seen her mad plenty of times, but never in a bad mood. As you can tell by the pictures that follow, there are a lot of people not related to my mother, who also love her very much. Happy Birthday Mom!!
