Willem en Martha Klaase van die plaas De La Rey buite Dwarskersbos boer met skape en bokke. Dit was dus \u2019n blye dag toe hulle nuwe lammertjies en drie nuwe skaaphondjies in Januarie kry. Dinge het egter \u2019n paar dae later skeefgeloop toe die lammertjies en die honde-ma Hannetjie dood is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOns vermoed sy was te veel op en af n\u00e1 die geboorte,\u201d verduidelik Martha oor Hannetjie. Die skaaphond, wat reeds langer as twee jaar op die plaas \u201cwerk\u201d, was lief om in die veld of agter die bakkie aan te hardloop. \u201cOns het haar later gesoek en gesoek, maar ons kon haar nie kry nie. Ons vermoed sy het te veel n\u00e1 die geboorte gebloei. Dit was baie hartseer. Sy is die een met wie ek altyd gepraat het as ek hier buite besig was,\u201d vertel Martha.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Skielik was \u2019n mamma-bok sonder lammertjies en twee hondjies sonder \u2019n ma. Alberto, Martha se seun, het egter \u2019n plan gehad. Hy het besluit die beste sou wees om mamma-bok twee \u201caangenome\u201d kleintjies te gee. \u201cHy was heel bedrywig met die hondjies en ek was nog \u2019n bietjie kwaad, want dit was dieselfde tyd as my verjaarsdag. Sy plan het egter goed gewerk en nou vind ons darem troos daarin dat die ma en kleintjies bymekaar is,\u201d vertel Martha.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sedert Alberto se blink idee gaan die nuwe gemengde gesinnetjie goed aan. Martha s\u00ea die reuntjie en tefie was Maandag \u2019n bietjie verbouereerd toe hul \u201cma\u201d met die ander bokke veld toe is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHulle het op en af gehardloop op soek na haar en kon nie verstaan waarheen sy dan nou is nie.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Later die middag was almal weer saam en Martha s\u00ea die twee weet nou hulle moet wag vir hul ma om melk te suip. Die tweetjies het nog nie \u2019n naam nie en Martha s\u00ea dit is \u2019n daaglikse gestry tussen haar en Willem om op name vir die hondjies te besluit. Vir nou pla dit die kleintjies niks nie, solank mamma-bok aan die einde van die dag net kraal toe kom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOns boer reeds 38 jaar \u2013 11 jaar hier in Dwarskersbos \u2013 maar dit is die eerste keer dat ons s\u00f3 iets sien, maar die diere het mekaar gewis gevind. Dit is \u2019n groot troos dat die bok nou kleintjies het en hulle \u2019n ma,\u201d meen Martha.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
