Did you ever just "know" when you first saw a certain goat that "This is the One?" A goat you fell in love with at first sight who later became a very special friend?
Cuzco, of course, is one of those special goats. Before we got Cuzco, Phil and I had looked at several goats for sale and none of them left an impression. We weren't even looking for goats when we drove past a farm where I glanced over and saw a tiny bright splash of color contrasting sharply against a green field and a herd of more ordinary-looking goats.
"DID YOU SEE THAT GOAT????" I hollered at Phil. He hadn't, and I think I about scared the pants off him as I slammed the brakes so hard I left tire tracks in the road. I pulled a 180 in the highway and almost got us into a wreck, but I was determined to find out more about that little spotted goat! He turned out to the be the best $25 we've ever spent.
For Phil, Finn is one of those special goats. The moment that little black and white face looked up at him, Phil decided he was a keeper. Finn was the first baby Phil helped deliver, and the two of them formed quite a bond over the summer. I have a feeling we're in for some wonderful days ahead with that beautiful fellow. I think he and Phil are going to become best friends this summer.
Do you have "One" who holds an extra special place in your heart? One you knew was significant the moment you laid eyes on him (or her)? I'd love to hear your stories!
