The Circle of Life

There's one thing that's always true on the homestead...

Death is never easy.

Whether you raise livestock for meat, eggs, milk or just have family pets...it's never easy to deal with. Not for me anyway.

Our second litter of dachshunds came late Monday night.  Dixie Mae and I were up til 3am bringing those 5 pups into the world.  The last little guy was just that...little. Very little.

And yesterday, he decided he just didn't have the strength to go on.

Yes, he was only with us for a day and a half...but it still hurts to lose him.

But today is another day. The sun is out and it's actually warm enough to take a ride on the bikes and do a little painting on the new old coop.

And the circle goes on.
