Jackson, this time it truly was not my fault, Johnson.

There Is No Uncaring In Unschooling
"He'd fooled us. He'd been learning all along--we just hadn't been able to see it because it didn't follow from our "teaching." It came from doing, sharing, and observing, from osmotically absorbing what was around him. I recalled that he once said to Mark, who was giving him snowboard instruction, "Dad, would you stop trying to teach me and just let me learn?"

Not again?
We lost another chicken but Jackson was inside the house. A dog named Sugar killed this one. Got out, came to our house, and killed a chicken. Sugar's owner has yelled at me, more than once, because my dogs are not fenced. If I had to lose a chicken, I can at least relish the irony of this.
Suffering from ironic chicken loss is not a good way to start the week. :(
Well, I just turned my pregnant cow out, this morning. Only to watch her be bred three times by the bull........... I was NOT pleased. But, I've since learned this is normal behavior in the seventh month. Whew. I expect to lose a chicken here or there. But I am not nearly so cavalier about calves.
Why does pregnant cow sex make me smile? Maybe Raz loves it like I did way back when. ;) Lord, someone should censor me.
