When do you do chores? I do chores when Mom needs my help. I feed the cat, water the goats and feed the goats hay. I can do pretty much all the chores by myself except milking. 

What is your favorite and least favorite chore? My favorite chore is feeding the goats hay. My least favorite chore is throwing hay bales out of the hay barn for the bucks.

Do you have a favorite animal on your farm? My favorite animal was a goat named Belmont, because she would always play with me. We had to sell her, and I was sad about it. 

What is your favorite subject in school? Math is my favorite. I’m not great at it, but the teacher is nice and very helpful.

Tell us about something you have recently learned in school. We are learning long division in math. I also read a book about World War II and really like that. 

What do you want to be when you grow up? A farmer. I want to raise goats and crops.

What is your favorite dairy treat? Ice cream.

What do you like to do on the farm during the winter? I like sledding down the barn hill.

When do you do chores? At night. We milk the goats, throw down the hay and feed the cat. We also spread the hay so the goats can share, wash the milker and go in the hoop barn.

What is your favorite and least favorite chore? My favorite chore is putting the milker on. I can’t remember my least favorite chore. 

Do you have a favorite animal on your farm? My favorite animal is my little girl, who is a black goat named Phoebe. I like to play with her and take her for walks, but she was naughty at the goat show. I like going in the pen with her, but she jumps on me. 

What is your favorite subject in school? I like doing music because I like the songs. 

Tell us about something you have recently learned in school. I learned about a caterpillar eating an apple. We also have been learning how to count bears. 

What do you want to be when you grow up? I want to be a teacher.

What is your favorite dairy treat? Chocolate ice cream.

What do you like to do on the farm during the winter? I like to play in the snow and make snow angels.
