Goat Farmer

A couple of weekends ago we made a visit to Poe about the same time all the nanny goats were having their babies. Braylon had to be right it the thick of things as much as we would let him.
I think this little guy may be the cutest goat Dad has ever had on the farm. He is a nice change from all the white with red heads that we are used to seeing from our boers. Of course his mama is red, but up until now she had never thrown a red kid....notice his two sisters have the true boer coloring. Funny Bray story: Tonight we were at the table having dinner. Braylon loves to pretend that we are an animal family all the time...usually we are bears, sometimes dogs. Well tonight Bray says, "Mom, you be the mama goat and I'll be the baby goat, and Dad can be the Daddy goat." I say "Ok". Then Bray leans in under my boob and starts sucking. Two things. 1) Braylon is very observant and of course took note of the nursing baby goats during his visit to the farm. 2) Braylon really gets into character with his imaginative play. I laughed till I cried!

Two things: 1) I think that is one of the cutest goat that I have ever seen and 2) I think Braylon is one of the cutest/funniest/kookiest kids that I've ever seen. :) I am cracking up!
