First of all, thank you all so very much for your kind words about Agnes. It was a terrible loss and I know that many of our long-time readers shared in our grief over losing her. For those of you who’ve asked, Arno is doing very well. As the oldest kid he was nearly ready for weaning anyway and he will continue to thrive under our careful watch.

There is never a good time to lose an animal. Never. But I was so grateful for the distraction of Dakota and Delaware this week. It is hard not to be hopeful when there are newborn lambs around. Here are some of the highlights of the week.

Keeping up with Mama isn’t easy.

There was a good bit of leaping going on.

Which is exhausting for such little lambs.

There was also a whole lot of snorgling to do.

On another note, we have received the first batch of Unique Sheep Yarn from Laura and Kelly and will begin shipping it out in order of order date tomorrow. Thanks to everyone for being so patient. This is a brand new project for both us and the Unique Sheep and we are still working out some of the kinks.
