Goats, especially the babies, are loud and demanding, but I love them.

Their sweet little faces are deceiving!

This morning, I headed down the road to the barn to feed the goats. I drove the side-by-side to the barn as the morning air and beautiful valley greet me.

Peace and beauty enfolded me, and for me, it was heaven.

Friends ask if we are going on a vacation this year.

No, we aren’t. I’m already in the best, most beautiful place I could be — where contentment, beauty, and peace fill me every day.

I’m in my heaven.

My heaven includes those two screaming babies named Jax and Arlo — Nigerian Dwarf goats — inseparable brothers.

How can two screaming goats be part of peace?
