Love Thursday: How to Leave Your (Teeth)Mark on the World
I’ve mentioned recently that P and I have a new garden spot. When we took it over about a month and a half ago, it was terribly overgrown so we spent many hours just getting it back to where it was no longer a jungle.
We pulled most of the weeds and unwanted greenery, but we also left a good amount for our kid, Pasqualina–she wanted to help out too.
And help she did, particularly one day when I spotted a cute heart-shaped leaf but was without my camera. I positioned the leaf by a lemon tree, ran home, got my camera, and came back to find this:
Obviously Pasqualina likes heart-shaped leaves too.
Does she look The Goat Who Ate the Heart-Shaped Leaf or what?
Happy Love Thursday everyone!

That goat seems to have a personality of her own! She seems almost human with that lovely smile on her face. Happy Love Thursday to all of you too.
She definitely has a mind of her own…and even that is cute 😉
Pasqualina is just too cute for words. I want to adopt her.

Reaching into the murky distant memories of my childhood and thinking about the various farm animals we had, I realize we never had a goat.
After seeing Pasqualina, I realize I am missing something! She is precious.

Hah, time to make up for it, Amber 😉
With a face like that, you’d forgive her for almost anything. Well, just as long as she stayed out of your garden patch.
Well if she only ate one or two lettuce plants….
i can’t get enough pasqualina posts 🙂
We’re *so* glad to hear that, Erin 🙂
That is quite possibly the cutest goat ever!
Happy Love Thursday!

Hee hee…goat fever!
Oh Pasqualina!!
I feel the same 😉
She has that same happy smile on her face that my guinea pigs get when they’ve been especially “productive” on the floor. 😉
jen of a2eatwrite’s last blog post..More about this later…
Hah! Yup, I bet it’s quite similar 😉
Oh my gosh, so adorable.
Thank you!
She is adorable. I want to just hold her. When we were around 20, friends of ours got married and My husband gave them a goat for a wedding present. Only they lived in the city. My husband handed the groom the goat on a leash and the goat took off. Initially, the Groom thought he had a new dog. The goat ran amuck through the house. So it was goodbye Elizabeth. Maybe you had to be there.

Yeah, goats and houses really don’t seem like they’d go to well together. But oh how fun it is to play with Pasqualina outside!
I have a thing for donkeys and love love love goats!
I recently got to play with some goats, adults and youngers, and they were so cute!!!

I’m with you Paola! I’d love to get a donkey….
I’ve been out of the loop for a while….oh my, Pasqualina is a total tesoro!! What a beauty – what a smile! She’s lucky to have you ….and you’re lucky to have her!
Thanks Laurie; I feel blessed to have had her show up at our place 🙂
Seriously, why doesn’t everyone have pet goats? She’s just so unbelievably ADORABLE. I wonder what the husband would say if I just brought one home? For that matter, I wonder how my cats would react??
Not sure cats and goats would make the best of friends…both rather skittish, but hey, I say it might be worth a try 😉
I love pasqualina.

Indeed!
Pasqualina is soooo adorable! She has such wonderful expressions! I’m glad that you visited my blog to read about bath time for goats! Of course Pasqualina is nothing like the poor, dirty, infested goats that we got from the rescue league, so hopefully her bath will be a little less intense! I will look forward to pictures of her bath time! It would have been better, also, if it had been warm outside when we bathed those little goats. Instead it was in midwinter and we had to keep them indoors to dry them. Pasqualina ought to be able to go dry off in the sun! Also interesting to see your article on part-time law school – I am half way through doing that myself. Unfortunately, my law school doesn’t offer a special program – I have to fit into the daytime classes, but my work is very accommodating, especially since they are paying for it! Two more years to go! Goatie kisses to Pasqualina!

Just realized that it’s not Pasqualina who needs the bath, it’s your other goat! Wait a second….what other goat?! Where is the picture of the new goat?! Can’t wait to see!
Claire’s last blog post..After the rain…
Thanks so much for coming by, Claire! The new little one hasn’t even been photographed yet (and most blog readers don’t know about her yet either)…I’ll definitely have to take before and afters at least. I think she’ll be a whole new kid after bath time 🙂
