how sweet it is

This is Charlotte. Once a lamb, now 7 years old.
This is Memphis, Charlotte's dam. Memphis won me a quite a few
fleece ribbons and Memphis' dam, Athena, took Grand Champion fleece 
at Black Sheep Gathering in Eugene, OR.
Just this spring this photo of Memphis was a winner
in a photo contest for a breed specific CVM/Romeldale.
I got an email this morning 
that Charlotte's fleece took 1st place in the 
breed specific CVM/Romeldale division
at the Maryland show. It's the largest show in the east.
I can't be more proud. Something as simple as this 
makes me higher than a kite.
