Ladies and gentleman, may I present FARLEY, my newest namesake. She was born earlier this week on The Bag Lady's farm in northern Alberta, Canada.
The Bag Lady tells us Farley is strong and tenacious. I'm sure that means she'll be a writer some day.
Bag Lady, I am greatly honored and deeply appreciate this wonderful Mother's Day present.
The following message is for all those moms, aunts, girlfriends, daughters, grandmas, sisters, cousins and great-grandmas, including those who come to us in a blend of steps and halves, and those who come to us through marriage and other family arrangements.
You bring us love and laughter each and every day, we wish you a joyful Mother's Day.
Terrie

I tried to fix the spacing, lost the entire post and had to redo, so here are my Happy Mother's Day wishes to all as best as I could format.
Terrie
dfTerrie - thanks so much for the shout-out! You'll be pleased to know your namesake is thriving and keeping her mother on her toes!
I posted a little video clip of her today, taken not long after she was born, that shows how strong she really is! It's a rare calf who gets up and tries to get a drink of milk only 10 minutes or so after she's born! And Farley didn't do the customary getting up and falling down several times - she got up and stayed up!
She's a go-getter...
Happy Mother's Day to all of you fine ladies.
Terrie-
Farley's a great name. Happy Moooother's Day to you. Did you know I got to name one of BL's herd this year, too? Sneaky!
Bag Lady-
We've all had such fun with the naming, but surely little Sneaky is emerging as the most adorable calf supergenius, right?
df Bag Lady,
I'll be right over to see the video.
Travis, Thanks you and happy Mother's Day to Jennifer and all the moms in your life.
Clare, I hope that Farley and Sneaky become fast friends!
Terrie
I know Farley will make you proud.
Clare - of course Sneaky is a supergenius! And so is Farley, and Pegasus, and Jocelyn, and....
Aww, another Farley. Cute!
Bag Lady, I got gorgeous photos of Athabasca Falls in January. The ice formations are astonishingly beautiful, particularly the blue ice.
(The retreat of the great ice fields gives new insight into global warming.)
Happy mother's day!
Bag Lady- That was so sweet of you to honor our Terrie like that! You'll need to keep sending us pictures of both Farley and Sneaky.
To Terrie, Nan, and all our other moms- Happy Mother's Day!
Leah,
Thank you. I'm sure Jocelyn will do you proud as well.
Leigh,
You are quite the traveler. I'm sure your pictures are spectacular.
Elaine,
Happy Mother's Day to you as well.
Terrie
Leigh - the icefields are one of my favourite places! Glad you got good photos!
Hello to Terrie Farley and Farley! And Happy Mother's Day!
Hi Barrie,
Thanks for stopping by.
Terrie
Terrie, I could have sworn I commented the other day, but I guess blogger did it's thing.
Happy Mother's day. Farley is sure a good looking calf.
Reb,
It must be something in the mama's feed. All the calves are looking terrific! Just take a glance at Pegasus!
Terrie
What a sweet mother's day message, and congrats on your cow!
Thanks, Crabby.
