I am in my element

My hubby Paul, can tell you every single cow - just by looking at it - and most of its family including mother, grandmother and sisters and aunts!!!! - He amazes me!!!

We have just picked the kids show calves for this year - so I will be breaking 7 soon
This is my eldest Reece winning the South West heats last year with Escudo:


And this is my youngest Jay, cuddling his calf, Tala:

I know - that is how lovely and cuddly they get when you spend every day with them!!!! Reece puts in most of the work

And, once a show calf always a show calf, they rush up to you for cuddles and never forget how special they are - we walked up to one of the fields tonight to check our in calf heiffers and there was a show calf from two years ago, pamela2 - Reece walked up and flung his arms round her and she snuggled back

Its brilliant I had no idea cows could be so loving towards humans!

[Nickynoodles]

I am ranting now - but you seriously would not believe how soft and warm they are!!!! their coats are just like velvet

Thanks Linda!! - I am really proud as he had no farming background whatsoever till I met Paul. He loves it out here and I am really thankfull that we moved away from town as I worried about kids hanging about on corners!!

He has had alot to deal with in his lifetime so far - he watched his dad beat me black and blue and then my brother died which hit him hard. Paul is kind and gentle and the get on very very well
