A Tribute in Honor of Geronimo. We lost Geronimo to Scours (severe diarrhea) on April 1st, 2022. He was only 5 Days Old. Scours is something Baby Lambs can get from Newborn to about a Week Old. Geronimo is the 1st Baby we've ever had with scours, and the 1st Baby we've ever Lost in a Birthing Season in these 7 years of Lambing.

We Lost Geronimo Just After Kimberlynne Marie Was Born the Night of April 1st. Penelope had a Stillbirth Late in the Night. Not sure if Boy or Girl. Named Espoir Ohana. Early Yesterday Morning We Also Lost Penelope. She Kept Pushing After the Stillbirth Thinking the Baby Was Still in There and Lost Her Uterus. Our Fam Did Their Best but Trauma Was Too Much & Couldn't Save Her. She Was 1 of 2 Matriarchs that Started the Herd.

Pray for Little Geronimo! He and Captain Leopold are the Twin Boys Millie had on March 28th. Poor Babe isn't doing well and the Next 24-48 Hours are Critical. Grammie & Grampie Brought Him Home Last Night & are doing their Best to Care for Him. Last Night He Looked Weak & They Realized Big Brother wasn’t Letting Him Nurse. He is Living in the Bathtub & Drinking an Ounce Every Hour.

This is a Tribute in Honor of Ellie Mae. Last Thursday, Ellie died 3 days after giving birth. Grammie & Grampie took her baby Maybelle home with them. HannahBelle, Ellie's baby girl from last year, wanders the barn looking and crying for her Mom & BFF. HannahBelle had her own baby girl this year. Harmonie Margaux is Ellie's first grandbaby. We are all heartbroken & deeply saddened by Ellie's loss. We are also thankful & blessed to have only lost 2 sheep in the last 7 years. God is good even in dark days!
