Big Daddy

 Big Daddy sheep that is.  This is Emil, the daddy of all the little lambs here.  The kids adore this guy.  He's pretty sweet considering what he is...rams are not known for their loving dispositions, at least the ones I have known.  Emil is cool, he follows the kids around like a giant weird looking dog.  He even lets them ride him.  Weird but he likes it, although I don't because the kids are going to hurt the poor guy as they've gotten quite large lately.

Matthew and Emil running around together.  Matthew gets him fired up and he starts hopping straight up in the air.  Check out how ate up this poor guy looks.  He used to be spending his days with the three donkeys, two of who picked on him relentlessly.  The mom donkey would try and protect him...he'd see the donkey kids coming for him and go hide alongside her.  I felt sorry for him until I remembered what a big annoying lunk he can be.

Emil waiting not so patiently for Sam to feed him a speculoos cookie. 


So there you have it, no blogging for weeks and all I have for you is a farm animal.  Memories for the kids...memories for the kids...
