Last week I took our Joy School class to visit a farm. They've been learning about the earth and nature so we went to meet some animals. A friend of mine from church runs a rescue farm nearby, so we went and met goats, chickens, bunnies, dogs, ducks, a pig, and even some turkeys! It was a blast!
I wasn't home when Liam told Dad about his day at the farm, so when I returned home after the kids were in bed, Ben questioned me about Liam petting a turkey. He assumed that they just saw turkeys and that Liam was exaggerating about getting to pet one. Liam was telling the truth! This turkey, named Kona, was like a dog! He followed us all around the farm and loved to be pet. It was amazing to see a big bird so up close!
This is Abe, a really old goat recently rescued from an elderly lady. He was very friendly too and kept nudging us for some attention.

Emma, a rare breed of herding dog. She loved the kids. They loved her back.
