If you're not interested in watching a calf drink from a bottle, no need to watch the following video. I'm including it for my memory, mostly! This calf needed some extra attention after it was born. It wasn't getting enough milk from it's mother. That means the kids get to feed it a bottle on occasion! I like this video because: 1. The kids are actually working together! 2. The mother cow is very near, keeping tabs on its little one! You can hear her mooing with concern in the video!
On Dec. 22, I woke up to Caiden not feeling well. In fact, he said he hadn't ever felt the kind of pain he was experiencing that morning. Reluctantly, I made an appointment. Long story, short - it was good he complained because he ended up having his appendix out that afternoon! It must have been at the very beginning stages and thankfully hadn't burst. So, we were in and out of the hospital by midnight that night. Maybe the worst part about the whole thing is that his wisdom teeth surgery had to be postponed since it was supposed to be the very next week. He'll go back to school minus an appendix, but still having his wisdom teeth until February 16! Pre-op Post-op
That brings back memories of when Chelan and I would feed our calves. I don't remember using a bottle though, just a bucket with them bucking their heads a lot a sloshing the milk everywhere!
