My Four Lovely Llamas

The hair on Aibileen’s nose is growing back in nicely. She is the sweetest thing that ever lived and eats from my hand.

Minnie lost the catch lead on her halter. I think she did it on purpose. We’ve booked the round pen the entire month of April for intensive halter training therapy. Someday she’s going to let me halter her without running away, I just know it.

Thelma, somehow someway, has ended up on the top of the pecking order. I think she must have taken lessons from Louise. She’s in charge and doesn’t hesitate to put the other girls in their place, sadly she doesn’t want any actual responsibility, she just wants to be in charge.

Then there is Popcorn.

Yes, I’m aware she’s not a llama. Unfortunately, I don’t think SHE is aware that she’s not a llama. She spends all of her time with them, ignoring the other sheep.

I may need to buy her some high heels soon to make her feel better about herself.

You must be mistaken. Popcorn definitely has the llama look. That is definitely a llama. The girls a beautiful. We have the same problem with Fuzzy. (we did not pick the name). We may have to put a halter on her. She is wonderful. Just don't touch me!~

Having always been the "tall one" among most of those of my gender, trust me when I say that Popcorn may LIKE being the petite one!

Love the expression on Popcorn's face!

This is hysterical - you're a good writer! This story would make a good children's book - just sayin'. :)

I think Popcorn is a "schlamma" instead - they are all so precious and I love reading about all of them!

Popcorn isn't exactly the wee lambie she was last year, is she? I can't wait to see what you think of her fleece.

I just love your girls. Popcorn looks quite pleased with her life and has no plans to return to the world of the sheep.
PLEASE get rid of the 2-word verification. It's so awful.

Gosh I wish I was there to watch you do the round pen. I need help and I'm a visual learner:)
