Our Lady's Windy Acres

The calves are here! Does God have a sense of humor????

Well, we got the beef steer on Saturday, and he settled right in like he's lived here all along. Munching away on the pasture grass and happy as a hog in whatever hogs are in!  We got the Dexter heifer calf yesterday and I should have known she' d be trouble when she escaped right out of the trailer! ARGH!  We finally got her in the stall, and we've had her out in the pasture on a lead line, because she wants to be with the horses, and they don't want her! 

On top of all that, this morning she got out again on the way from the barn to the pasture.  Poor thing's been quite traumatized, being taken away from her herd and her mamma, but enough already! Luckily, DH and the girls were able to get her back.  That was the good news - the bad news is that after he left for Adoration she got out of the barn, and took off down the road!  Long story short, they were finally able to catch her after she fell into a swimming pool! God answered our prayers, but I think He's got an interesting sense of humor, because in the midst of all this cattle-catching, we ended up w/2 stray kittens!

Somehow our homeschooling day isn't going the way I planned. Happy Monday!!!!

Can't you believe that ALL things work TOGETHER for good?
I find your comments SO FULL of anger... We are to be Peace Makers....
Don't you think God can change things?
It is NOT only up to politicians but UP to GOD......
When Peter struck the Romans ear (in righteous anger some might say) OUR Lord Healed his ear and said MY kingdom is NOT of this world...
How Far we have come as a world from that!
Maybe You can undwerstand 'Judge Not'
But with prayer and Praise give thanks...
'For if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and PRAY God will heal the land...
As a sinner I did many things which were ungodly...
But I am saved by GRACE......
Also over the years I have changed not always for the best...... But I pray I may become more LIKE YESHUA our lord and Saviour.......
and remember HIS name is also LOVE...
Happy Thanksgiving
