Lloyd’s mom has a donkey. On Saturday, Lloyd, Aaron and I walked around the farm and Hee-Haw (that’s his name) followed us. At one point, Lloyd and his brother went back to the house, but I wanted to keep walking. The donkey stood in between us, wondering which way to go. I figured he went back to the house, but after I was done walking and turned back around, there he was – ambling toward me.
We stopped at one point and he ate a bean pod from a locust tree. I picked up some more and fed them to him, then started walking again. We stopped for another pod, then he nipped at my sweater sleeve. I walked faster. Hee-haw ambled along behind me, intent on eating my bean-pod colored sweater.
Sweet little donkey. I hope you stay warm this winter.
