Today was Liberation Day.
We brought the heifers in from pasture a month
ago because the lack of rain was beginning to take its toll on the grass. The heffies
hung out in the corrals and stuffed themselves with hay all day because there
was nothing else to do. Hubby regularly chided them for eating so much and
putting on so much weight, but I reminded him that they were, after all, eating
for two.
After a great deal of labor on the part of the
humans on this outfit (I could write many a paragraph describing just how hard
we worked and just how much my back still hurts, but it would sound like
whining), the hayfields, stacks of irrigation pipe, windbreaks, and fences are finally
cow-ready. But it’s all worth it, just to see our pudgy darlings running and
playing to their hearts’ content—and to
not have to feed them for a while!
“All of you set free by God, tell the world! Tell how He freed
you from oppression.” –PSALM 107:2
