We woke up to more snow, not enough to ski on
but enough to make everything muddy again. I slithered around in the mud and
snow to check the older calves out in the pasture. Although damp, none seemed
worse for the wear, and this evening, all were dry and scampering about.
Hubby taught me another way to verify calf
health: look at their mamas’ udders. An over-full udder is almost always a sign
that a calf is sick, perhaps with pneumonia or scours, and has lost its
appetite.
Well, I’m
feeling rather perky and the ice
cream carton is half empty, so I must be hale and hearty too!

not come to call the righteous, but sinners.’” –MARK 2:17 (NIV)
