5 am Chores

Call me crazy, but getting up at 5am to feed my cattle is one of my favorite things to do. Yes its earlier than many of you have ever gotten up and sometimes can be the time that a few of you go to bed, but I wouldn't trade those early mornings for anything. Getting up at the crack of dawn and getting to see the sunrise as your cattle come running with joy at you because they know you are about to feed them, is probably one of the most humbling experiences in the world. These creatures are so dependent on me for food and for care that they come running, yes cows can run, at the wee hours of the morning just for some grain. It's amazing. Often times, my cattle with nudge me with their noses in the hopes that I have some food on me. What a blessing.
