That is where things went all wrong! See, animals don't like it when you throw a wrench into their plans. Once they see their feed mama head out the door it is feeding time, and that's that. So, for a quarter mile, I hear two battling roosters and two screaming sheep, you know they have been starving for a full twelve hours! Well, we haven't gotten the hang of walking to the bus, so we were a little late and had to run the last little bit, and Rosie (the dog) got really excited, and hopped right on the bus with Bella! Like a good girl, she followed Bell to her seat and sat right down. I had to climb onto the bus and coax her off amidst the joyous laughter of the kids and the crimson face of my poor daughter!
I then hurry home to feed the demanding animals that are bawling so loudly by this time that I figure I have animal control on the way. The chickens are stacked pyramid style against the fence to get out of their coop to see what kind of morsels I have brought them from the kitchen and to find their secret places to lay their eggs, it cracks me up every time! Finally I get a chance to play with my new lambs; Crash is "ramming" the water bucket, impatiently waiting for me to pet him. Princess, on the other hand is still quite shy, so I get down on the ground to try and get her to come near... and BAM, I have a lamb on my back! Will this place never cease to amaze me?
Don't forget to enter the contest!

I'm still laughing, envisioning the dog climbing on the school bus! The kids probably loved it.
A Day In The Life Of The Mom At Royal Ranch.
The dog's on the school bus,
Bella's face is red,
while two roosters are in a fuss,
and two hungry screaming sheep could wake the dead,
chickens stacked up pyramid style,
Crash "ramming" his head for awhile,
but what makes this Royal Ranch Mom smile?
A precious lamb on my back.
In my crazy, busy life nothing strange do I lack.
