Baby Goats

It appears 2010 is not going to be a major blogging year as it is 1/4 over and this is only my what 2nd or 3rd posting. I won't apologize though, i'll just carry on as if nothing happened.

We are studying goats in Olivia's kindergarten homeschool curriculum and so we headed over to our friends the Weipert's who happen to have some baby goats. poor goat right...who feels sorry for the baby goat?

We learned all about the proper care and handling of baby goats. Those goats have to be ready for anything you know. Our words to remember are "Jesus died for my sins" and we reviewed the story in the old testament where the priest would place his hands on two goats heads - one would be killed for the sins of Israelites and one would go free. So cool this story falls on the week before Easter.

Hey, don't worry about the goat... I witnessed a friend's child squeeze the life right out of a baby chick. ;o) You know who you are! Heeheehee... I think it ended up being fine. At least that's what we'll tell ourselves.

I'm glad you posted. I can't really complain since I never post on my blog but I have missed reading about your family.
