Hope Finds Her Voice
Gracie and the girls continue to call the barn home.
Having them spend a portion of the day in a stall gives me the opportunity to bond
with the lambs.
They are quite fast, now...
so catching them outside is impossible.
While in the stall, I can pick them up and snuggle with them.
Our weather has suddenly gotten warmer,
so Gracie and the girls spend their mornings and evenings outside.
The hot afternoon is nap time in their stall in the cool barn.
The twins are getting quite curious and a little more independent now,
so herding them from stall to grazing yard is always an adventure.
Once outside, they run and hop and play...
even enticing the dogs to play chase alongside the fence.
Here are a few minutes from yesterday morning...
where Hope finds her voice.
