Lambing Begins!

It is the end of February and time for the lambs to start arriving at my step son and daughter-in-law's farm. I love all things to do with the farm and I'm always excited to learn. This week Pam is helping out so I'm going to work in the morning and then going to the farm for the evening. So far there have been twins born (a boy and a girl) but that was over the weekend. Now we are waiting for others to make their grand entrance. I will most definitely volunteer for bottle duty in the evenings. Notice I said evenings because this is a 24 hour job. Every two hours the lambs that need special care must be checked and bottle fed. If that doesn't sound hard enough consider that these two young people also have a 9 month old! So, whatever help we can offer we will give. I'll keep you posted on the lamb count.
