George is feeding the lamb who couldn't walk, he can now stand unassisted! We got 3 more lambs this past Saturday. So, that's 6 in all. 3 ewes and 3 rams. We've named each one! Their names are all going to start with the letter C: Cookie, Cream, Custard, Chip (who is the newest and tiny, 1 of triplets), Captain + Colonel (pronounced "Kernel" who is mostly black). Feeding them every 4 to 6 hours, lack of sleep due to the time it takes to measure the right about of milk replacer and warm water for each one...the night feeds are the hardest for me. These days are busy.
I baked more kulich yesterday, with golden raisins. We do our home school lessons in kitchen at the table, while I'm chopping, baking or doing dishes. Writing verses and this past week "The Lord's Prayer." Paul has been adding numbers for a total greater than 10, but less than 20. We also started to use www.xtramath.org in January, which is great, helping with speed, and just a few minutes each day.
It is sunny and warmed up to 53 F so I thought I'd put the lambs in the small fence where we put the calf during the day. Three of them escaped, thankfully we got them, they were huddled behind the other neighbors shed. So, that's why a good fence is necessary!
Beautiful! A tiring but very worthy and beautiful life ❤
