A Few More Things

John and I have managed to clear out a great amount of lumber from the goat barn. Only a small bit left to move. What's left before we can have the goats? Well, John will need to build the feeding stanchion - shouldn't take more than a day; we need to put up a single gated fence to separate our yard and the goat's yard; I need to lime and straw the earthen barn floor, stock up on hay and feed; establish an emergency kit, stock up on basic supplies (hoof trimmers, brushes, water buckets). Then, we can finally go pick up our kids and bring them home!!!

Expecting

Everyday I think to myself: somewhere out there, is my goat kid; still in it's mamma's belly. Growing closer to being ready to be born. End of March should be the time. It's so close, yet so far away. I feel so lucky for what is about to happen.
