Baby Calf



This little baby was born a week ago Monday evening. He is adorable!

This morning as I was getting around for school, I heard the mother bawling and bawling. I decided something must be wrong because I couldn't see the baby anywhere and usually he's standing beside his mom.

I put on my boots and went out to see what was wrong. When I got out there, Mama (yes, that's her real name) came right up to the fence and looked so sad. I started to cry! Anyways...I looked around and there the baby was, dead! It was so sad to see him laying there all stretched out and stuff. I just know his mommy's heart was broken! When I left for school she was still bawling and James says she'll do that for a couple days! :( We can't bury the poor little thing cuz the ground's too frozen. Just thought I'd share some news with you about life on the farm.
