Lesson learned from a week old Calf.

I learned something for a week old calf yesterday that I really needed to know. We were loading the cows (three semi loads) on to the truck. Once the bigger calves where loaded we started with the littler ones. My 12 year old cousin wanted to push the little guy up the ramp. As she was you could tell he was scared to death to be walking away from mom. But he kept putting one little hoof in front of the other. He looked around the top deck of the truck, kicked a few time (thankfully never hit my cousin, me on the other hand have some tiny bruises on my shine), and got his little compartment, laid down and just waited. The lesson I learned is that we have to go on new roads and yes they can be scary we don’t always have someone there to hold our hand the whole way. But like this little guy we have to trust it will end well and keep on trucking. I am happy to say that when we unloaded he was much livelier and bounded of the semi like the longhorn he is. This morning while having my coffee He was jumping around his mom and playing with the other calves. Now waiting for the third load to arrive then off to mass!

That is one less thing they must worry about when looking for a home. The house or property with the least amount of work that needs to be done is the winner 9 times out of 10.
