meet our new baby lamb!

Our little shepherd meeting his newest lamb

We arrived home from a trip this evening and had a little surprise waiting for us! This little one was born some time today. From a distance, it looked like a little black cat was running around the pasture.

I told the kids, "I'm a Lamb-ma!"

 All four of our ewes are expecting right now. I've been so nervous about this possibly happening while I'm home alone with the kids. I really don't know what to do. In my mind, I saw myself boiling water and searching for old rags like they do in the movies. Then I scared myself by doing a bit of research online. Of course the only articles I could find were the ones describing the most gruesome births.

We're so excited about our new little lamb!

Congratulations Lamb-Ma. God has provided us with all things necessary (even death if He deems so). I love the pictures of your children romping around their own home ground. Thank you for posting :-)

Who is the artist singing on your music list? Love the song!

They are Jenny and Tyler, a sweet couple who opened at a Sara Groves concert I attended last year in Spokane, WA.

You need to start wearing one of those bracelets with the letters WWCD. Translation, what would Caroline do? That should take you through any homestead emergency ;-)
