Isn't this the very best feeling in the world? Being a grandparent is sooooo awesome. You think you can't ever love anyone the way you love your child and BAM! That precious little gift from God arrives and you realize you can! There is nothing like it. Enjoy every second you have with her. Congratulations !!!! Before you know it she will be helping you in the rose garden!

We went out to dinner and got back by 8pm. The fawn was still parked by the house and seemed in good shape. Sometime between 8 and 11pm, the fawn disappeared. He was not around the house nor nearby. I did find another place where he may have bedded for awhile. Mother deer must have moved him. There are plenty of places to hide a fawn near our property. It will the last we see of him until he runs with Mom. Earlier, my wife had called the animal rehab center for advice (in case something had happened to its Mother). They do not take deer willingly. They don't have the facility to foster a fawn to adulthood nor the means to teach the deer to act like a wild deer. When one is brought in, they poll their contacts to see if someone will adopt him, and if not, he is euthanized. Deer are not endangered around here. Many are smashed at night on the fronts of vehicles at the expense of the vehicle owner. Personal injury has resulted in a few cases. The Animal Center said that a fawn can easily go 12 hrs between feedings. They said to keep watch on him and if he began to call for his mother, stir around, and seem distressed to call again.

socks, i guess i never posted about the pigs. i lost both of my females a couple of years ago. they got sick and no matter what the vet and i did, they kept going downhill. ended up having them put down as they were really suffering. vet did a necropsy on one of them and never really came to a definite cause of death. he thinks it was some sort of bacterial infection. last october, both of the boys started having the same symptoms. we did all of the blood work and diagnostics all over again and could find nothing definite. knowing what i was in for after dealing with this already, i opted to put both of the boys to sleep before their suffering got unmanageable. if i had it to do over again, i would have euthanized both girls before they got so very sick. they are all buried out in the big alfalfa field along with 2 horses and several goats. i will no longer have any outside animals. i had even thought about taking the fencing down but gary poured his heart into building it 20+ years ago and i can't bring myself to take it down.

Summers, I think seeds will give a blooming plant in a matter of weeks. Judging by how quickly Cori Ann was able to grow rootstock, I imagine he would have been up and going within a year. on a small scale or two at the most. Even my cuttings can root in 2/3 weeks and would make nice plants quickly if it weren't for winter. It also depends on the grafting method he chose as some are more forgiving than others, but it sounsd like he knew what he was doing if he could ramp it up to such a large operation. I would like to know what rootstock he uses and if he grew it himself. That to me would take the most time, but I suspect he started grafting as soon as there were enough eyes on the mother rose and the rootstock looked like it would survive. Maybe roseseek will comment with his long experience.

these 2 keep me laughing every day, many times! they have become best buddies and i couldn't have asked for a better companion for pip. frank has even taught her how to play tug and it's hilarious! frank has his morning routine down now. he crawls into bed with me about 5:30 am every day, we cuddle for 30 minutes, i get up and frank goes back to the living room and sits wherever pippin is sleeping (she's never in a hurry to get up in the morning). he will sit there until she wakes up, crawls down from her perch, stretches and then they play till it's time for breakfast. they always sleep together 💕 frank has been bulking up and it's no wonder, he eats like every meal is his last! 🤣 today i received eden's memorial portrait. it's as beautiful as i knew it would be!

Congratulations! My stepdaughter made me a Grandma almost 3 years ago and once I got past the "I'm too young to be a grandma" thing, I'm having a blast with it. The best part is that you get to enjoy them when they are being enjoyable and give them back when they aren't. :-)

Oh, how beautiful she is, Rozanna! Thank you for sharing her picture with us here, and so soon after her birth, too! She is angelic looking! How will you be able to tear yourself away from her, and actually go to work???

I am so sorry I will miss you when you get into Texas this trip... would so love to see you again!
