I feel something wonder-ful about sheep.... I think it may be because when I was 9 years old, my dad told me he had a surprise for me.... he took me to a neighbor's farm and there he handled me a baby lamb. My eyes and heart was so full of joy at that moment...
...the smell from sheep may be something unpleasant for some people but for me is like a special memory.
I hid "mimoso" for 3 evenings under my bed.... but the smell gave it way, I think...grin... momma, got him back to the barn.
when it rained... mimoso ( in which is a word for "tender') would go through the barb wire fencing , leaving behind lots of wool, and would come underneath my window and bleed -calling me.grin. I would sneak out and sit on the porch with him for a while.
I think that's where my love for sheep comes from....
... my pastures are not with my sheep at this time and I miss them so much....
I made a little girl with her sheep.....
It is with the LAMB that she rests today.... He is her first love!
These are Jacob's sheep.... just like mine,grin!
I little sparrow is a special birdie that was made by a talented artist named Ilona.... please click on her name to go to her blog. I hope to post soon a milking machine that I commissioned her !
