Sheep are very precious to me for several reasons.  One, the Bible uses the analogy of sheep to represent God's children.


Second, I am an avid knitter and I prefer to knit with wool


I am a spinner and I love spinning with wool


So when we were out on a drive and I passed these beautiful sheep of course I had to take their picture



This was their beautiful protector

I am joining up with Rurality Blog Hop today.     Rurality Blog Hop

    Love that you caught one of the sheep bleeting.
