Followed her to school one day

What were you doing at 5:30 this morning? Curled in slumbering bliss? Thinking about starting the day? Dreaming about that piece of cheesecake? Bathing a twenty pound lamb in the bath tub, with baby wash? Can you visualize it? Aren't you jealous? We had to have a clean lamb in anticipation of her big public debut.

AnnaFleece had the privelege of visiting school today. Two schools to be precise, and over 300 kids! Anna came with me to the elementary school, and then went to Chicagami for Kohen's show-n-tell. She was perfect. I never thought I would be leading a well behaved lamb down the second floor hallway of the school. She was a hit. She had more pets, hugs, and kind words today then most sheep receive in a lifetime. Here is a picture of her with some of my students.


This one needs an explanation. The first grader that wrote this has many reversals and "dyslexic" style of writing as a result of his learning disability and vision problems.


I'll translate for you: I love Annafleece. I love Anna fleece so much I could almost marry her.


At 10:00 am I put her leash back on her and we took the one block walk to Chicagami. Picture a preschool room with over 20 preschools, all sitting in a circle anxiously awaiting AnnaFleece's arrival. She stayed calm, but had to have a little accident on the floor. (Guaranteed to not be the first in the preschool room!) Kohen was puffed up like a cocky rooster when he showed off his lamb. He even showed his friends how he feeds her a bottle.

(Kohen is in the middle front, orange shirt, big smile.)
