For the Love of Joe


Our neighbor and friend with the goats also has an adorable baby (he'll be a year in the summer) donkey named Joe. He's the sweetest donkey I've ever met. He loves hugs and is super calm.

Many a time we've told Kyle not to run up to Joe from behind, and many a time Kyle doesn't process instructions of the warning nature. Kyle is wild, loud, and Joe is patient and calm with him.

Joe is also very patient with Brenda's friendly and playful doberman Angel. Angel loves nothing better than to run up to Joe and jump on his back to wrestle with him. I guess we have Angel to thank for tempering Joe...Angel is way more rowdy than Kyle. We were all cracking up at Joe running around with a doberman playfully on his back. Joe loves it and really knows how to get Angel going.

Even though Joe is still a baby Brenda hoisted the kids up on his back for a test ride.

We're going to have a lot of fun visiting Brenda this summer. Reeve absolutely LOVED riding on Joe, and we all loved Joe's wonderful temperment and sweet personality.

Today is the last day of winter and I'm almost done with the winter chair in my cross-stitch. I'll post the picture tomorrow and hopefully I'll meet Reeve's challenge.
