Bonus Blessing

I was out on a photo safari before dark, and found a surprise animal in the back yard. There was one of the the yearling ewes with a newborn lamb!



I went in to tell Jess the news, and he said, "How did that happen?" Well, first you have a ram....

Seriously, it's a good question. The ram would have had to be in with the flock in January for us to get a lamb now. None of us could remember that happening. However on closer inspection of the calendar, I remembered we were in Canada the first part of January, and had farm sitters. They did not mention a straying ram, but ... that's just about the only explanation.

Which leaves us to conclude we'd better check the other 3 yearling ewes, and see if they might be expecting also!

Oh, and the bonus bonus - it's a ewe lamb! I've already named her Serendipity.
