It is the quiet time of year

Right now is a very quiet time of year. Only an occasional tractor is heard running and that is not a bad sound to hear. Most of the time there is just nothing but maybe a baby bird to be heard. Me and my horse even try to chew quietly which is not hard to do since it is such young tender grass we are grazing on.

Oh we do hear the children across the road playing on their swing set and other toys laughing out loud at the top of their lungs it seems a lot more now that the weather is better. The boy has a whistle. Not a real whistle but a broken recorder. A recorder is a flute sort of musical instrument that children learn how to play when they are in school. He has three of them, all different colors, but he likes that red broken one the best it seems. Our human girl was whistling back at him the other day when he was being especially happy with his toy. We heard his Daddy say to him 'Did you hear that? Blow on it again I think someone answered your whistle.' We thought it was very funny so we, my horse and I, ran around kicking up our heels. The little boy would blow as loud as he could on his broken recorder and our human girl would just use her lips to whistle back loudly. We do not know if they knew it was her but it sure was fun to listen to them.

Oh I said a minute ago that our weather is better but what I mean is that is nicer when it is nice. A lot of the time the wind is blowing from one direction or another and today we are having some thunderstorms but nothing so bad yet. Last week we had some serious weather come thru but we did not get hurt and only a little bit scared. The bad weather doesn't last too long and then the sun comes out and that is wonderful. It is wonderful because it is like God is shining a spotlight on all the beautiful glimmering shimmering spring colors. One of my favorite trees to stand under in the summer time is the last one to get leaves on it each year and the color of those leaves are spectacular after a rain!!!!

Well I a going to go back out in the pasture and eat me some more grass now. See you when I see you!!!!!!!!!!
