These two have been such a great addition to our little farm.

Dahlia is so sweet. She’s already using my backsid as a head scratcher.

Darcy is as cute as a button and will make an incredible family cow someday.

It feels just as it should be.

Friends, listen to your intuition. If something feels icky to you — regardless of the kind of icky — don’t continue to do it.

It’s a funny thing about trauma, it causes you to tune out of your own body. The safest place is the place furthest from where you are.

The result of this is a whole bunch of adults who don’t know when they need a freakin drink of water now because they couldn’t allow themselves to need a drink of water 40 (or 20 or 30 or 50 or whatever) years ago.

***
Don’t do it.

Don’t suffer because the people around you either couldn’t or didn’t do the work.
***
Don’t.
