So far, two-year old Flame is the top contender
for 2013 Cow of the Year. It was nice that Flame had her calf, Liza, without
assistance in the pasture. She’s done a great job of raising Liza too. But the
extraordinary thing about Flame is that she has mercifully adopted a steer
calf, Cisco. Cisco’s mama, Clarabelle, is pretty much a flop when it comes to
mothering, but Flame has graciously taken up the slack. A heifer usually doesn’t
have enough milk for two calves, but Flame is kindly nursing them both and is none the
worse for wear.

“Let us then
approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may
receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.” –HEBREWS 4:16
(NIV)
