No that's just it he didn't want the critters in the first place they were my choice. If he hadn't had me he said he would of just stuck to Hereford cattle that's it. NO horses, ponies, llamas, goats, sheep, chickens, peacocks, ducks, geeses, not even a black angus bull to try out for black baldie calves. Maybe I was a mistake, I dunno!

Ellie May-
just keep posting - we realize you are enthusiastic and youthful. We realize you know more than most of us and we also know that with age will come wisdom. If we don't like what you say we can always skip over your posting. Don't let the few ruin your enthusiasm and dreams, but my father taught me (or finally got it to sink in) when I was a teenager, that one gains more education from listening. It took me many years to realize he was correct. And with that education and experience will come wisdom.

I always heard that's why we have 2 ears and only one mouth!

'tis better to remain quiet and have people think you're a fool than to open your mouth and prove them right.
 
No yesterday-Thursday we were out for ice & rain. Here in Tennessee & today I had a dental appointment & most the day was over so my mom said I could stay home. I haven't missed that much school so she let me.

Ya'll--I sure get a kick out of some of these posts. Sometimes I laugh so hard it gets the tears rolling. I'm sure we've ALL rolled our eyes a time or two at somebody's post at one time or another....I don't like other boards 'cause it's seems like it's a bunch of women chit-chatting during their soap-opera commercal breaks--BARF! Here on this board I've learned ALOT & for the most part its friendly, and it's deversified. To each their own opinion; that's what makes us 'different'. Have a good day all!

Yeah I concure. Sorry if I'm a loud mouth, I don't talk that much around my family or at school. That's probably why I talk so much in here!

Ellie,

You don't have to reply to EVERY post on EVERY board. Especially if they're not directed to you. If you don't know anything about the subject, leave it alone.

Ellie I have children about your age. They learned respect and what "Shut Up" meant at least 10 years sooner than you. Then again, if they were in this discussion they would be talking about CATTLE, not Zebra stripes and sprinting Hippos. Go outside and run a couple miles, then come back.
