Riding Cows

Olivia, Daniel and I went to a mommy group day on Wednesday at Olivia's friend Josh's house. Josh lives on a cattle farm, so I asked his mom if we could take the kids to see the cows. After much playing on the kids part, and as much catching up as the mommys could do with our second kids on us, we finally went to see the cows.
Before heading over to the barn, Olivia asked if she could maybe ride a cow. Ahh, no sweetie you may not. Cows do not like to be ridden. She seemed to accept that, and off we went. Once inside the barn, Olivia seemed enchanted by the cows - from a safe distance. There I am getting slobbered on by cows and a calf to show Olivia and Kyla how gentle cows are and how much they like to be pet, but no-go.
Even not wanting to touch, pet or go within a foot of a cow didn't stop Olivia from wondering if the next time we visited the cows, maybe she could take a ride on one of them...
Take care,
V
