*Background info-My uncle is currently separated from his wife, and is living at my grandparent's farmhouse. He bought 2 pregnant goats to "keep him company", and they just had their babies . So the goat kids that we are going to snuggle with are not just any random goats that we heard about. We aren't creepy goat-stalkers... I promise.
The excitement that Ellen displayed when I asked her to come with me to see the goats was astounding. Direct quote-"I love goats almost more than anything. Goats. Are. Amazing."
Ellen is also the type of person who expresses her emotions through sound. For example, the sounds blug, merg, and blurg represent frustration, and gawww, eeee!, and schmee! are gleeful. Even though we were instant-messaging over the internet, I could picture her letting out a "gawwwww!!!!" on the other side of the computer screen.
The joy that she took out of just an invitation to go on this excursion was awe-inspiring because she felt no need to restrain herself at all, and that is a beautiful thing. It's most definitely one of the things that I love abut her, and while I was still super excited to see the little baby goats, I think now I am more excited to see Ellen's excitement when she actually comes face to face with the goats.
Ellen, I love you. Keep being awesome, and I can't wait to go hug some goats with you.
