My farm is truly blessed

Goldie Horn has disappeared, it makes me so sad, I have no idea what has happened to her, she just stopped turning up for
dinner and I never see her with the others ranging around the farm any more. She was so beautiful and now she's gone.
Anyway there is another animal I haven't introduced you to. It's a white elephant!
He lives outside my laundry door in the corner. Okay he's not a real elephant but I'll
take a picture for you.
Jesse reckons I've got a chicken statue behind him.
Hey, what's that between his legs? Jesse is right apart from one thing…
It's not a chicken statue…
Its GOLDIE HORN!!!!!
There she is sitting on I don't know
how many eggs. I can see four and
hello one is broken. A baby has
hatched!
Hooray I've found her, she hasn't
disappeared after all she's hatching
her babies.
Look there's the empty shell and just on the
left you can see a little yellow ball of fluff.
Much excitement on the farm.
Here are two of the
new babies only
just hatched. It's
ANZAC day the 25th
of April and I am
being blessed and
entrusted with brand
new little lives. I
wonder how many?
The little black one
was the first so I
shall call it ANZAC.
But look there is
another. Four so far,
one gold two yellow
and another black.
Two days later
and the count is
eleven babies!
There are yellow
ones, black ones,
a grey one and
a little gold one
like it's mum.
