“A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts.”
~Washington Irving

On Thursday, after seeing the Hairy Hacienda madhouse, Carson asked if you all could see what happens when MeeMaw gets ambushed in the corral. I wouldn’t say my mom was ambushed, but Fergus and Ellsworth definitely vied for her attention, scritches and hugs.
This was the first time for my mom to meet Fergus and Nigel. Fergus instantly glommed on to my mom. Interesting.
Ellsworth knew from her visit in October that my mom was good for scritches.
As always, there were a few aww moments. Look at Ellsworth’s head on Fergus’s back. You can see Nigel dutifully standing behind Fergus.
And Ellsworth rubbing his face against my mom’s back…
Fergus willingly accepted a hug…
And so did Ellsworth.
If you happen to be wondering where Bernard was during all of this, he was busying himself with trying to eat the camera and wrapping his pretzel self around me. I think he might be turning into a momma’s boy. I find myself totally okay with that. ♥

Lord have mercy.
The girls love their MeeMaw.
On Tuesday afternoon, my mom arrived from Maryland for a visit. As always, a madhouse erupted when she walked into the Hairy Hacienda.
Why is the Baby snarling at Whisky?
Once Kassie was out of range, Whisky decided it was okay to join the welcome celebration.
Which naturally led to Whisky and Kike playing. Their idea of playing is Whisky pretending to chew on Kike’s snout.
Of course, everyone eventually calmed down and Enzi gave MeeMaw a hug.
And then Enzi and Kike gave MeeMaw a hug.
We love our madhouse.
Yesterday was my mom’s birthday. Happy Birthday Mommy!
