Facts About Cows

Today is not a normal day. We learned today that school is out for the rest of the school year.  It makes me sad.  

A picture of Ashton in 2009 with Cowie which was given to him as a baby gift by his Aunt Carol, Uncle Jim, and cousins Christa and Michael Sachse from Wisconsin! 

I'm going to tell you 5 interesting facts about cows because cows are my favorite animals! Cows are my favorite animals because I got a stuffed cow when I was a baby. I named her Cowie. 1: Cows can have cowpox. Cowpox vaccine helped cure people who were infected with smallpox.   2: Cows produce more milk when treated better.
3: Cows get excited when they solve problems.
4: All cows are female (boys are called bulls).
5. Cows chew up to 8 hours a day, moving their jaws about 40,000 times a day!
