The thing I love most about early morning critter chores is getting to enjoy the sunrise every day. :)
Lovely Michelle!
Lovely! Sherman my boy Pyr and I go for a walk every morning between feeding and milking. Yarrow my girl Pyr and I do too. They each go alone with me "mom time". With Sherman we sit on a boulder and watch the sunrise. It is such a peaceful time of clean slate new hopes.
