Just a very quick update to say that we've been researching adoption agencies and that we've narrowed the agencies we are interested in going with down to two. We are planning to call and get more information from these agencies in the next few days. We want to make a decision about which agency we'll go with by the end of the month so that we can begin moving forward in the adoption process. So we really covet your prayers for us right now, that we'll have wisdom about which place to choose and that we'll make the best choice for our family and have receptive hearts to listen to where God is leading us. Thanks for all the prayers you've already been praying for us in this process. Hopefully, we'll have exciting new about who we're going to be working with and what country we will be looking at soon!
It looks like the last update I posted on animals was about going to the sale barn and getting cows. As a reminder we got a calf/cow pair and a "weaned" calf: Chloe, Midnight, and Mooey. Chloe and midnight are some kind of black angus mix and midnight is part Holstein. Midnight and Mooey will eventually be our meat cows. We hope to AI Chloe sometime in the near future for another calf. Midnight, her calf pictured below (much littler in the pic than he is now) is a very good looking steer. He could go to the fair if he wanted. This is a picture of him getting out of his fence and coming in the yard. He still gets out from time to time. Having a mama calf keeps both the steers in line though. They are much better about not getting crazy, unlike some other steers we could name from the past, but won't. We ended up having to feed quite a bit of hay this winter as we had snow cover from November to end of March. We got our barn built about January and began collecting more ...
