Mr Flowers – the long awaited display.

And all is right with the world.  Just for that moment of yesterday afternoon in this corner of the world.

Both my guest worker and The Cadet spent a considerable amount of time yesterday standing in the loft looking across at Mr Flowers. Open mouthed. This display lasted more than an hour. man gardening

Then they both went back to their respective tasks. Help has arrived.

The Cadet had endured such a hard day at school that she literally lay down and went to sleep in the straw cuddled in with the calf, Naomi. I can think of no better place to recover, so let her sleep.

I hope you have a lovely day.

Your friend on the farm,

  1. The theraputic value of the Farmy – even just reading about it – cannot be over-estimated. I’m so glad the Cadet has the Farmy for R&R.

    Mr. Flowers is just gorgeous. Jock’s been asking me when there would be pictures, so when he’s woken from his after-lunch nap, he will enjoy the feast of fotos.

    Love,

  2. Breathtaking. Mr Flowers has waited and assessed and observed. And now he’s ready, sure that the Farmy is safe for Peacock Family life. Mrs Flowers had better look out – Mr Flowers is Displaying! Wonderful photos, Celi, and my favourite calf is looking particularly adorable in her fetching red necklace. Lucky Cadet…

  3. Mr. Flowers, just absolutely, positively gorgeous. Glad the cadet found a good spot to rest. I hope she felt better when she woke up. Ton seems to be approving of the new arrival. He is a good judge of character. Welcome Frederico (?)!!

  4. Stunning. I can’t wait to show Evie, who is sleeping as she was up during the night with a fever of 103. I am so sorry that the cadet had a hard day at school. I hope her stress left as soon as she was with the animals.
    I have to say Naomi is the cutest calf I have ever seen!

  5. Wonderful pics! So happy to have Mr. Flowers on the farmy! He will be able to fill the footprints of The Duke of Krupa, who was also very wonderful! Just love the pic of Ton Ton and the guest worker. It looks as though Ton is carefully checking to make sure he is doing the planting just right! 🙂 And I just went back to check and nobody has a heavy coat on! Now that is exciting!!! 🙂

  6. I am so glad because that has the farm to come too. Being a teenager is no easy business. That just melts my heart. Naomi is already working hard and she doesn’t even know it, being a therapy calf. I have certainly come home from long days in court and needed nothing more than a good snuggle with my dogs. Mr. Flowers was kind to serve at the large dose of beauty, also a powerful elixir.

  7. I am having trouble posting. I don’t know why. I was just going to say how jealous I am of the Cadet. She found the perfect spot to let all her cares drift away!

  8. you are so lovely and kind letting The Cadet sleep, she must have really needed it ,,and what a lovely place to sleep cuddled up to Naomi, all smelling of baby and milk. And as for Mr Flowers…that just took my breath away…so absolutely stupendous, what a proud bird he is

  9. Oh Myyy!! He is spectacular! ❤
    I wanna lay down and sleep in the hay with a cute calf too!!! Sounds like bliss! I so need to save my pennies and head around the other side of the globe for a visit {I don't have to bring the hubby n kids do I ?!}

  10. Celi, I love that you host the farm prodigies – they are getting the experience of a lifetime and inspiration for their lives. We so desperately need the small family farm to recover from the blitz of big ag biz with its huge soil crushing machines and its chemicals and earth destroying practices. Everything you do is an inspiration. YOU GO GIRL! Di
