Aaahhhh!


To Precious and Samson, 9 Little Gems..... born evening of Tuesday 23 February......

We knew something was afoot when she didn't appear for tea.... "Think it's piglet time" said Linda....

Precious had already taken in all the sticks and twigs I'd given her the day before - a sure sign that the time was coming - so Linda dashed off to fetch some fresh straw and then we left her to it.

By the time I went out before bedtime, there was the unmistakeable combination of gruntles and squeaks coming from her ark. And at breakfast this morning Precious was more than happy to let me have a look at her family whilst she tucked in to her breakfast - which included eggs freshly laid for her by the ducks........

Now, that's a proper Baby Shower........
