Farmy work never ends.
Hairy loves children.
He likes to Kiss them.
When we were walking we stopped to listen to the rustle of the dried winter grasses and investigated tracks in the snow, and peeped into empty nests and ran up and down the pathways through the wild grass.
On the way back even Minty crept up for a cuddle.
Bless our sheep for welcoming the children to the Farmy. Good sheep. 
Isn’t it wonderful how our horizons can change. And our lives expand just with a nod and a smile. Saying Yes.
Good morning. I am glad we went for our Nature Walk yesterday because this morning we have freezing drizzle. So it will be inside playtime this today and we all know who will come out of her box for that!
You all have a lovely day.

PS. I was making wooly mattresses for the dogs this time last year. Though this year Mama’s fleece was saved and spun. Hopefully very soon I shall take it all over to a loom and begin to make a blanket. I really must find the time to do that.

So sweet! All our animals love kids, even adolescents. If only the parents gave them half the break the animals do … 😉
When sheep are acclimated to people contact they can be incredibly winsome. Hairy is king of cuddly! How lovely. 🙂
How sweet! I think it’s great that kids are comfortable around animals and vice versa. =D
Miss A is on my lap as I’m reading this one. She said I’ve been to a petting zoo. I explained to her that this wasn’t a zoo, but a real farm. She was quite blown away by that fact. LOL. Mr. N spent his early preschool years in a rural community, so this wouldn’t be new to him. Miss A, however, apparently I need to get her out of the city a bit more. 😉
What a sweetheart is that Hairy MacLairy. He’s all ready for Valentine’s Day!
I am so happy to have found your blog, through Spirit Lights The Way. I wish I could come and live with you.
