martha had her second calf today, again in the rain.

it’s a little bittersweet: one year old marty had to be put in a separate pen. she’d started nursing again these last weeks so after baby was born, she got moved over. reminds me of the growing pains in our human family, too. you can see her peeking over the fence in the distance.

flashback to baby martha:

and here.

and the movie of her going to school here.

flashback to baby marty:

it’s amazing to watch the mini herd grow…and a nice distraction from the depths of life.
