Dreams can come true
Since I was a little girl, I have dreamed of owning goats. My father always wanted a goat, so that may be the reason I found an interest in them. And now, they are gracing my back yard--two mini-alpines--a brother and sister! The little buckling soon to become a wether, and the little doeling we will breed later so that we can realize our dream of milking. It's an adventure--and a learning curve. So far so good!
I like the rhythm of the day -- feeding and watering (and one day milking) twice a day--it is like the rhythm of prayer in the Episcopal Church--Morning Prayer and Evening Prayer. I am grateful for the opportunity and the call to prayer.
Next, we will choose a name for our little place--such serious thought. Then on to planning for a few chickens and hopefully a worm composting adventure! Life is good!
Thanks be to God!
They are soooo cute! I'm glad you got them and realized your dream.
ReplyDeleteI say, get the chickens now and composting with worms is a simple thing, good crappie bait, too!
