I hate cows. 💔
They have this way of finding their way into your heart, making you fall completely in love with them… and then they go and do something stupid and break it.
We lost Cassy last night in a freak accident, and I’m honestly at a loss for words. I cried pretty hard this morning. I just wasn’t ready for this one.
I was literally getting ready to pick out a nice Brown Swiss bull to breed her to. I was so excited to see her grow up, freshen in, and see what kind of cow she would become. I had so many plans for her.
Cassy was born the day after my mom’s birthday, which always made her a little extra special to me. Maybe that’s part of why losing her hurts as much as it does.
Today is one of those days where I just want to crawl back into bed, pull the covers over my head, and cry. But the other cows need me, and farm life doesn’t stop just because your heart hurts.
I’m really going to miss this girl. 💔
Rest easy, Cassy girl. You deserved so many more years. I hope you’re up there with my mom, getting all the scratches you could ever want. I know she would’ve loved you. 🤎🐮
