Verity writes about a day at the farm
|
On Monday , Daddy, Mommy, and the twins went to Travers city and the rest of us went to the R.'s house for the day. We played with yo - yo's, balls, and games, milked cows, drank cows milk, and splashed in mud puddles. And also, Mercy and Peace did silly things -of course.Ha,ha! To milk a cow, first I washed its four teats, then dried them, and then squirted milk out. Then you attached the milkers to its teats.To open the gate for the cows to go out, you pulled on a string. I opened the gate two times, and Peace opened it once. Warren helped her. Warren and Lydia were a lot of fun.Once Lydia pretended to take Peace away, and once Warren let me open the door. For lunch we had pizza, noodles, apples, and bananas.For dessert we had pie and ice cream.Splashing in mud puddles was fun.Since my shoes were dirty, I had to wear a pair of their boots. We also fed the calves.I would say,"come on," and the calf would back away so that I could I could put some food in its food bucket. |
