The kids have started drinking way too much milk and not sharing that much with me. Usually you take the kids away from their moms during the night and then get lots of milk in the morning before putting the kids back with their mom. We do things differently of course. We have a kid daycare for the kids to go to during the day. We get a little milk in the morning and lots and lots in the afternoon before the kids get home for supper. They can run and play together, eat without being pushed away by the big goats and just have lots of fun. Of course we don't leave them all alone. They might get into too much trouble. Auntie Princess Diva has been given the job of watching over them. The first day she looked at us like we had really done something bad. Now she waits at the gate for them and plays King of the Mountain and even teaches them different games. I tried to take pictures but Marval wanted to see what that strange thing I had in my hand. I will be sure and try to take pictures after they get up from their naps and post later. They are such fun to watch I have to make myself stop watching and get back to work!
The moms are very happy. They seem to enjoy having a break from the kids. They gather around and gossip while eating hay and then stretch out in the sunshine and take a nap. They also seem really happy when the kids come home. They sniff them over and then feed them supper. If you are ever in need we have opening at Kiddy Daycare!

Thats so neat. I like how you describe it. I could picture them for sure.
I have a set of twins that really started draining mom this week!! So I am debating on how to separate them.. I wish I had the place to do it during the day I think that would be less stressfull but I will probably have to do it at night since I would need a much smaller place.. I was trying to get pics too but they just come running to see what I have...
Your words paint such a vivid picture of the "girls" enjoying their free time and sun-bathing! Hope you have a great weekend Peggy.
Oh, they're so much fun to watch, aren't they? :)

You paint such a fun picture of the Moms getting to hang out while their kids are at school! You totally have a little Mommy Goat Coffee Shop! LOL

Oh my gosh that picture is funny! It sounds like so much fun at the haven!
This is great! I will tell Karri if she ever loses her babysitter she can just bring the (grand) kids over and you can throw them in the mix! lol
What a neat home for all of those kids... I'm sure they love their daycare, and that gives their Mom's a break... Just like us!!!! ha
I love your blogs, Peggy. Thanks so much for sharing.
Hugs,
Betsy
