Thankful Thursday


#1 here. As I go off for almost four days to the French Percheron Championships, it's my turn to be thankful. I am thankful for Mr. G who always takes such loving care of the Gang when I am not here. I am thankful that Queen Tama is still with us one year after her liver tumour diagnosis. She has lost weight and condition but is still into food, snuggles, and getting brushed, and she still won't put up with any bad behaviour from the boys! Every single day with her is a gift.

I am also thankful that I got to spend time with some adorable baby donkeys and calves yesterday. Here are a couple of non-Gang pics:

A Grand Noir du Berry donkey baby. There were only 14 births in the breed in the whole of France this year.

  2. So much to be thankful for isn't there. I think we all feel that way. Love these photos, especially that beautiful black donkey with a white nose. I will have to check into what kind that is.

  4. Those two babies are so cute! Mr. G is one to treasure as he cares for your family as if it were his own.

  8. I am praying your travels are safe and you have a great time.

    The donkey is precious. If I believed in totem animals, the donkey would be mine.
