Duggar Trial Respite Thread

[FiveAcres]

It occured to me that we need a Duggar Trial Respite Thread. Some people were using the JRod thread for respite which could potentially suck since TIJWATA.

So post your Pets! Sunrises and Sunsets! That cute thing your offspring / grandoffspring did this morning. Feel good stories of any sort. I will find my photo of the burrowing Boston.

This is Bandit, the burrowing Boston Terrier. If he can't find a lap, he likes to burrow in the bedding.

Still Duggar related, but much more lighthearted than the rest of the discussion: I just realized this week that the guy who sings the "Fancy Like" song on the annoying new Applebees commercials with the TikTok dance is the same guy who sang during Jill & Derrick's proposal. Apparently he's expanded beyond awkward reality TV plot line aid.

Here's the IRL Indiana Bones and her brother, Simon. They are trapping me under my covers in bed in this pic.

@FiveAcres, thank you for starting this thread. Definitely needed! ❤️

This is a very happy Miss Molly after a long walk through the local national park. The only way she'd be interested in a Duggar is if they threw a tennis ball for her. Repeatedly.

I feel like this should be captioned "Look into my eyes. You will become my ball throwing minion."

My husband and I are driving home from our middle daughter’s holiday concert. She is going for her masters in cello performance. 🎄🎅🏼🥰 it’s the first time we’ve seen her play in almost two years. 

Also here is Mr. Kitty, captured here mid-yawn  🤣

I'm dogsitting my granddog, Meet Sabot. She's a border collie and a total love.

My kitty's “quit bugging me” face.  She’ll love me later when it’s time for treats. 😍

Sadly we are without a fur baby right now. So here is me at age three. I’m the one on the right

Okay one more for tonight. 
Here I am in my happy place watching a James McMurtry live stream.  I’m his number one fan girl.

Some of my fur children. We recently adopted three kittens. Beatrice is the kitten there by herself. She sleeps with me at night under the covers. People join dating sites to find someone as affectionate as her, seriously. And then there's Tansy our labradoodle. She's a big huge baby. The sweetest most, patient dog I've ever owned. She's like having a horse inside your house but we forgive her because she's a sweetie pie.

All these beautiful fuzz babies. My resistance to a new cat is weakening. I know OneKid really wants one.

Lovin all the furbabies!  Here's mine! Delilah is our 6 mo old labrottie pup and Chamomile is our 7 year old staffie.

My beautiful Luke, He KNOWS he's all that!

I LOVE all your pets! 
I‘m nursing my 12 weeks old little baby boy right now. We had a rough start and he had to spend some time in the children‘s hospital, but for now he is doing great. He is such a happy little human being and takes breaks from nursing just to smile at his mama. 
 

And now some pets for you. Our fur babies.

I tried to find one without my feet but that’s where Eevee lives. I’m her person and frankly the last few days she’s my unofficial emotional support animal. She likes long walks, human food which we limit but she’ll try and beg for endlessly and rolling in other animals’ poop 😬 we’re working through things 😂

This is Shadow, on the day she came home from the shelter in August 2018, just before her first birthday.  I thought I was going to have a chatty girl, but she actually turned out to be pretty quiet.

ETA - I just realized I should put a warning for sensitive viewers...they do show the stillborn foal, but it's not graphic, as in, it's not deformed or anything.  It looks like a normal foal that is asleep. But if you would like to skp that, skip over the following section where the stillborn is shown..... 1:13 to 2:23. 
Original post - 
In the category of wholesome/non-stressful/ SFW youtube channels, this is my favorite. Here is their most popular video...A mare has a stillborn foal, and is sucessfully fostered to a foal whose own mother recently died of colic.  Unlike some other mammal species, apparently horses don't really take to fostering, because their own bio offspring take so much energy.  So mares have an old instinct to kick away foals that are not their own. Which makes this extra special.  Enjoy
