Monday's Wait

Last night around 10 our cow Naomi was having her calf. I was sitting on a bucket waiting. I thought that I could take a video and maybe post it so I went into the house and got my computer.

I was waiting and waiting and waiting and still no calf. Mom said that she was to tired so she and Tyrell went to bed. I stayed out for another half an hour and still no calf.

Her water broke and everything and was still dripping. I put my computer in the cabin and went to bed. I was going to check her every single hour. I fell asleep. This morning Mom asked me if I wanted to come with her and see if Naomi had her calf.

Tyrell and I got up and checked on Naomi. She was missing. Tyrell and I searched the whole pen. At the bottom of the hill there she was laying on some grass and leaves.

We went up to the house and had some breakfast. We were playing horse opoly and then we had to do our chores. I went outside and did the chickens. I checked the eggs and sure enough there was just 1 egg.

For some reason they like to lay eggs in the evening. I gave them some grain. I did my chore list that mom made Tyrell and I. We finished up and then played Horse Opoly.

Dad said that we had to go to Jesse's place to get the water tank and also go to the spring and get some water for the animals. I did some laundry at Jesse`s and went home.

I put the hose in the water tank and it kicks like a mule. Well its somewhat hard to hold it because of the pressure. At the end Tyrell splashed me with water so I got him with the hose and then he got me.

When we got home we were very very wet. Mom and Ty were trying to put a halter on Mallory but she ran away so they have to try again tomorrow. I went with Dad to get another load of water for the garden.

I got a hold of the hose and had to hold her down. I almost got soaked by letting the hose go but I managed some how.When I got home I went inside cleaned abit and played Horse Opoly again with Tyrell.

By the way Dad aid that today is the longest day of the year and the rest of the days are getting shorter. Today I believe is the first day of summer. Which is weird because the rest of the days were so hot and today was gloomy and raining.

I am going to go and make some supper right now so will write again tomorrow well try to anyways...

Sunday Morning

It is Sunday Morning and I'm sitting on the couch thinking what to write about. Last night Darcy came up and he was visiting. A HUGE rain cloud hovered over us. We didn`t know if it was going to stay there or going to pass us. Later it passed over us. Although I have to say that it did rain for abit.

Isn`t it wonderful waking up to fried up potato`s sizzilying in oil??? I think its wonderful. Yesterday our cow Emelia is MIA ( missing in action). On Friday we put Chico and Moniet in a pen. Moniet is going to have a baby colt. Chico is my lovely horse that I love. I have been working with him for a couple of days now.

Mom was thinking of putting Emilia in the other pen. Mom asked Dad and he said "No we will do her later". from this day one she regrets it. We think she had her little baby calf.

Mom calls her how she usually does and she comes racing up the mountain, but now she has gone and we don't know where she is.Mom is thinking what happens if she is having trouble calving or if something got the calf.

today is a beautiful day, Sun is shinning and not a single cloud in the sky. There are lots of dishes to be done. Tyrell, Mom, and I are going to take turns going the dishes. I am thinking what should I make after the dishes.

Jesse is working right now with his helper that his boss sent over. He is at the bottom of the road and he is putting fence posts around the land for his boss. I think I'm going to make something very delicious. Any idea's???

I am going to vacuum the floor and also make the bed. I mowed the lawn on Friday and you'll never guess what happened.The next day lots of dandy lions came up so I will have to work on that.

I am going to clean this whole entire house. I am thinking of going for a nice walk with Mom and Ty and maybe Darcy. We are going to look for Emelia again. Granny May's leg is getting better everyday.

I am feeding her some bread,hay, and some nice picked grass. The dogs are jealous. The dogs always gets the bread. Its kinda like a game for them, who can get the most bread!

I`m also going to work with Chico. He is beautiful horse. I will take a picture pretty soon and post it. He i finally done shedding. I personally think that horses look pretty when they are done shedding.

Well I am going to go now
