In my spare time

Due to my husband's health issues, I have spent a lot of time taking care of our flock of Southdown Babydoll Sheep, a rare English "Miniature" breed of sheep. Little time has been spent on "miniatures" of the other kind.

It is very possible come spring time- 16 new lambs could be born. This is Rosie- at her first "show" she was not only the breed's champion ewe lamb but the overall grandchampion for the breed in the ewe division.
She will give birth to her first baby in spring of 2011. I love this picture and still can remember
how it felt to hold and cuddle her.
