I sometimes think of Red and Fate as farm managers. They went and collected the sheep this morning while Maria and I cleaned out the barn, and when I came out to work with them, I found they had put both of the sheep in the corner of the pasture, and Red was holding the sheep while Fate was practicing her eye strength. These two are very trustworthy, they rarely are alone with the sheep together – Red often sits with the sheep while they graze – but I trust both of them completely.
