Sadly, we lost our little Huck last night. While we tried to prepare ourselves that it might happen, it doesn't make any difference and we both have heavy hearts. It was over quickly, his little lungs just became too weak. Huck was a very special little donkey who has left a sense of loss on our farm.
Going through this with Huck has taught us many things, some that only experience can teach. It also brings to mind that if you don't want an animal that you will fall in love with, then don't chose miniature donkeys. They have a way of finding a place in your heart, a sweet addition most of the time, a sad reality when one is lost.
Thank you to all of you who have worried and cared about him, as we have. And, also to those of you who even prayed for him. "Then God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature according to its kind: cattle and creeping thing and beast of the earth, each according to its kind. And it was so.....And God saw that it was good." Genesis 1:24-25. We agree.
