Sharing here something rather personal...
Got this very heavy heart, Bengbeng our second daughter's first goat ever (who's at the forefront in the picture below) died this morning due to old age and very cold climate. She passed away gracefully in such a poised position as if just sleeping and leaving my daughter a legacy of around 15 kids. My husband the shepherd buried him in the most honorable manner he could give her.
I never thought that a death of a farm animal turned pet could make me somewhat emotional...
Bengbeng is a goat so special to us. At times when we come home to the farm she would meet us and would get her usual home present of a piece of bread, yes bread, she loved bread. She even knew our snack time, and would be making her particular knock at the door to get her piece of bread.
This evening when we came home to the farm, no Bengbeng around to meet us anymore , no more Bengbeng to knock at our door during snack time...
Surely a couple with no children in the farm will miss this very special goat whose been a source of joy too...
Rest in Peace Bengbeng! Many thanks to the herd, you started it all.
