A Day at the Farm





Maya is a Wisconsin girl!!! We went to a farm and this was Maya first time being around Cows, Pigs, Calf's and Chickens!! She did amazing, all she wanted to do is touch and pet and see what those crazy animals were doing. I thought she might be frightened by the big cows but no she wanted to pet it and she even let the big cow lick her. It seems the bigger the animal the more she likes it.
So this farm is were a lot of people that live at the Institute get fresh milk and eggs. Their eggs are huge and to die for. The couple that owns the farm is a great couple and they just let us come out and roam around. We will be going back with Josiah so he can see Maya's reaction. This time my friend Maureen and her daughter Tulsi came and it was so much fun to see the kids enjoying the outdoors. I didn't realize how fun it would be to show Maya things for the very first time. It is humbling to know that she is seeing everything for the first time, it makes you appreciate the world more and makes you slow down to show her things. I absolutely love it!!!
