My little cowgirl

I'm going to let you in on a little secret...

my little cowgirl Madi, is in love...

with her calves.

I knew the moment she flashed that great big toothless smile of hers at a newborn baby calf when she had just turned one, that I had a true farm girl on my hands.

Every year, she seems to grow that much more in love with her 'cows'.

I am in awe of this strong little girl of mine who loves her animals so much,

and always has...

She has known more about them than I, her 'city' girl mama from about the time that first photo was taken!

The photos on the bottom of this post are of her and her new fair calf, Squiggles.

She is pretty adorable, and I think she loves Madi just as much as Madi loves her.

I am so thankful I get to call her mine!

Love you, my sweet girl!
