This is my post I had to put on Facebook this evening:
Marla – feeling disappointed.This guy is the Grinch and Ebeneezer Scrooge both!! He refused to load in the trailer to participate in the Live Nativity. I am embarrASSed. Poor Mary…..no room in the Inn and she can’t even get a ride….
Sigh….
I pulled up to the front door, preparing to unload groceries I got after work, and was greeted, like normal, by Happy’s bray. I said, “Oh $#it.”
Well, he’s just a homebody, I guess. A stubborn one.
I made a cup of coffee and had a good chuckle as I pictured Pig-Farmer and the other man (both over 6 feet tall and 200+ pounds) trying to push, pull and pry Happy from his pen!
Friends, I wish you a HAPPY weekend, FAITH to know that Christmas will arrive despite any challenges, and SERENITY to accept the things you cannot change!
Just Make the Coffee 
I love donkeys.
Yes, I do, too. They are so smart!
Well, he probably figured his ancestor did it, and it was enough!!! long ride into Bethlehem….no way…I am laughing and cheering for Happy!!! he knows his stance on things and I admire that..and we all can learn a lesson form him…stand up for what you believe..no matter who thinks you should do something, if it is not in your own best interest just HEEE HAW… HI HAPPY saluting you!!!!!! with a smile…Merri
Thanks, Merri! He is his own man, for sure. We’ve had several suggestions for how to load him up, but we’ve decided not to put him through the stress of trying again.
Aw, I guess Happy wasn’t happy about being in the Nativity.
He wasn’t about to give up the cushy job he has here at Happy Ass Farm.
Braying is good. I remember a Bible story that involved a talking donkey. Not good. Creepy. scary.
Yes, in the book of Numbers! Quite interesting, really.
Oh no! You’ve gotta love donkeys. If their idea doesn’t mesh with theirs, their idea wins.
OH no. Christmas is coming anyway. Merry Christmas!
