Decision time

Thursday July 16, 2020  Well it’s about time to make the decision for 2021 crias.  If I ask any one, I usually hear “Yes, have some babies again!” Because babies are joyful and sweet and it is a miracle to have them arrive. But there’s really only one person (me) who sits and watches the pregnant moms day after day, who has to be ready to handle the occasional births that don’t go well, and be on hand to make it all right. One person (me) who needs to be responsible for bringing a new life into this world. The possibility of a bottle fed baby is always a reality and although it might sound fun, the novelty wears off in about 24 hours and the reality is very very time consuming. Some days I really miss having the wee ones, some days I know I could not handle one more thing. If someone could promise me that we’d have easy births and that they’d all be girls (We’re out of space for boys) I’d probably say OK. But I know that will not happen.  But the fleeces we’re seeing on the Romulus babies are so wonderful! And I do want more! I’m still on the fence, but need to make a decision soon. With a 345 days gestation, conception now means babies arriving late June 2021, which is just about right.   I’ll let you know what I decide. :). And please stay well~
