Even regular readers probably don’t recognize
Penelope, a heifer born to Petunia in 2011. I feel badly because, as far as I
can remember, I haven’t written about her since her birth.
A wallflower, Penelope boasts no eye-catching
markings, arresting looks, or noteworthy quirks that lend themselves to
interesting photos or entertaining posts. Neither timid nor assertive,
Penelope quietly stays well out of the limelight, watching the “stars” from the
shadows. To be truthful, we rarely notice her.
As Penelope drowsed in today’s relatively warm
sunshine, I knelt to take her picture. Perhaps she’s a sleeper, I thought. When
she has her calf this spring, maybe she’ll shine brighter than the rest.
“But the path of the just is as the shining
light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.” -PROVERBS 4:18 (KJ21)
