Happy lambs

Well done ewes!  9 lambs in two weeks.  Tess, Wilma, Velma and Velveeta all delivered healthy twins and Wanda gave birth to a singleton ewe lamb last night.  We are enjoying watching the lambs gambol in the field.  They are similar in temperament to happy toddlers; energetic, curious by nature and occasionally annoying to their mothers. 

 

In other news, nursing school continues at a fervent pace.  While we've been in the nursing lab practicing vitals on each other and learning other skills on dummies, we have yet to go into a "real" setting to practice.  This happens for the first time next weekend.   It's a little scary, but it helps to remember that all nurses have gone through a similar training process. 

And finally, the Farmers' Market opens up in our village this Thursday from 3-7pm.  Since I will be in class, my darling husband has hesitantly graciously offered to sit by our booth and sell my handspun yarn.  I've prepared a few cheat sheets for him so he knows a little bit about the product.  We He will also be selling lettuce and garlic scapes.
