Everyone has had an intriguing moment with an animal-good, bad, happy, sad. I have had enough to fill up an entire lifetime, and I am just getting started.

In turn, they have taught me invaluable lessons. And many times, I have lost them. My family lost countless when we lost the first farm. We had to sell cows and chickens as both our dairy and poultry farms failed.
