Mothering Time II

This is a ewe at the other end of her productive lifetime. By her teeth, you can tell she has born many lambs over many years. She is the mother of the triplets.
When Farm Boss went out to see if he had to help the young ewe deliver her baby, he saw these three playing on mama. He took so many good ones that I decided to post most of them.Those lambs' faces are just so cute, and she has the patient look of a flock elder who has done and seen it all. Nothing phases her much.
Like all kids, lambs love to play king of the mountain.

Yikes!!!!!! She looks so calm, I can't help but wonder if she's in shock at the prospect of triplets as I would have been.

The twins are growing so fast. I love the little guy with the black nose and knees. He looks like he has been playing in a coal pile.
