Blessings of God

Life on a farm is always a challenge. We have 31 animals at present. Eleven babies were born this season. We pray the mothers will all deliver and accept their babies plus so many other things that can go wrong. Throughout the summer we switch pastures from one side of the road to the other. And what a time we had the first time this year. We had babies going in all directions and a couple of cows that had never put their feet on tar simply stopped. It took 3 adults and 3 kids plus a driver who was stopped and waiting to conquer the job and get them into the pasture. They will go easier the rest of the summer now they have done it once.
The children love to come and see the little ones. This is Uncle Richard and Jolene walking carefully through the pasture. He is the only one that can do this and the cows do not run. He says, 'They know the master's voice' This is a picture when I got too close and they ran. Their mothers were not far away.
I took a lot of pictures this year and really like this shot. The only thing that comes to mind is 'the blessing of the Lord is rich and adds no sorrow'
