My Family Knows Me
John and Gingko gave me a sheep for Mother's Day! From Heifer, of course. It's like being a grandmother, I can enjoy the sheep without having to trim the hooves. I'm going to name her, though--suggestions?
They also gave me a copy of Zati: The Art of Weaving a Life by Susan Merrill. I'd read Sarah Swett's glowing review of this book recently, and since Sarah is the person I would most like to be if I could trade places (well, that's a dangerous statement because I don't actually know her...) I really wanted to read it. It was right up my alley.
Slightly random, but did you ever watch the old Doctor Who series. HE had a robot canine companion called K9. My nickname for years has been J9. As we share a name, perhaps you could appropriate this and name your sheep after yourself!

What great gifts! And, thanks for the link to Heifer. I think I'll just mosey on over there and buy myself a sheep!

What a great Mother's Day present!
Does your sheep send you wool? No? Oh well....:)
