I hate that helpless feeling, and having to be the one to make hard decisions about when/how much to interfere. However, we learn something with each experience that will hopefully help us in the future.Pattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18153751759157433693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628662603932607754.post-56169544931171079622013-04-11T04:46:56.560-05:002013-04-11T04:46:56.560-05:00I don't think there was a thing more that you ...I don't think there was a thing more that you could have done.

I don't think you could/should have done anything differently. You never saw any life to the little doe so there was probably nothing else you could have done. Even though it's hard, I think having children see the truths of life and death on a homestead is much better and more of a normal thing to accept than never having seen anything like that until they are adults.Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628662603932607754.post-62796035527709674932013-04-09T11:46:34.336-05:002013-04-09T11:46:34.336-05:00I hate when that happens.

I remember the first time I saw a dead lamb on our farm and I was about her age, unfortunately that year was bad and I had to see one of my favorite ewes die giving birth to triplets shortly thereafter. She'll be okay and kudos to you for getting in there and doing what you could. Hindsight is always 20/20, don't let that bother you.

I'm pretty sure she has about three weeks left maybe more. I can't remember when I noticed she was in heat but it was around December. I feel so dumb thinking she could have kidded months ago. Her udder and teats are finally getting big, what was I thinking before (face palm)<br />Anyways its too bad about the baby. It's soo sad to lose one. <br />Rhiannon is going to be a tough little farmgirl ☺<br />Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12326069783582536184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628662603932607754.post-24872987058032026642013-04-09T07:11:34.101-05:002013-04-09T07:11:34.101-05:00Yes, you are right.
