Being stuck in the city, the only births I've witnessed besides my own kids, were puppies and kittens that our pets had over the years. Even those were really cool. When I was younger, I dreamed of growing up and marrying a rancher. Alas, I married a sweet computer geek who's scared of horses.Vickie McDonoughhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09698966142886006577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-792587971041348663.post-76448398838873750062011-02-06T17:39:07.741-08:002011-02-06T17:39:07.741-08:00Thanks for sharing these, Mary.

Wonderful experience... and SO QUICK.<br /><br />I assume cattle are similar in that respect.<br /><br />Thanks for letting us enjoy with you. Sure hope those babies are ok in this weather.

He puts them out of the Maternity ward cowyard nearer the house and across the road. We were watching them on...I think it was Tuesday, so stinking bitter cold. Vicious nasty, horrible weather. Sub zero, high wind chill, ice and snow and clouds and wind. Yuck.<br />And my cowboy says, "Look at them over there."<br />I looked across the road to the pen with the bigger calves (3+ days old) and they are leaping and bunting each other and kicking up their heels, playing in the snow. Loving it.<br /><br />They're tough little tikes.Mary Connealyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09598386111251769803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-792587971041348663.post-77713434327534702622011-02-05T19:37:41.218-08:002011-02-05T19:37:41.218-08:00Love hearing about the calves and your books Mary ...Love hearing about the calves and your books Mary .
