It is slightly unusual that Dear Farmer will call from the barn.
If we get a phone call, it's usually not good.
"I need help!" is most often the message.
So when the phone rang this morning, the Wife shouted-"It's Pop!"-before she even answered. Children began scurrying and searching for shoes. The house was in general chaos.
On the other end, this is what we heard:
"There is the cutest baby goat down here! He's about four hours old."
A hip-hooray from the children went the cheer, and out the door they flew!
Babies are the chocolate of the job, with whipping creame and a cherry on top! Baby Goats are nearly the most adorable thing we have ever seen. They even rank higher than baby ducks(which are pretty darned cute as well).
And so, the children rushed down to say "good morning" to our newest member of the farm family...Peppercorn. And a hearty congrats to his mom, Cumin.
We don't mind these phone calls from the barn ONE BIT!
