SPOILER!!: birth
Once the cow was good and situated, Peyton backed up then turned to the students. "...and now, we wait." Which could be an hour, so they may as well get comfortable.
...but just as she said that, an extra loud, "MOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" echoed throughout the little enclosure.
She grew wide-eyed and frantically gestured toward Firth, although she knew he'd know what to do, as well. "This is it, class! Either look up or turn away now." Because they did have two choices.
She watched as Firth helped the mother cow adjust her position a bit more, and then once he reached up, she knew he was guiding he cow out into the world. Moments later, a tiny little calf was there in the enclosure. "So perfect!" she exclaimed. "Such a little miracle!"
Sarah was ready to wait, yet she had to look...
Wait it was coming. Of course she looked... WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW.
She watched the keeper busy himself with the cow. Now she could help out at home doing birthing season. Awesome.
She nodded at the professor it was a little miracle after all.
Then she heard Mo say something, shock she replied, "
everything is a miracle, not matter how often it occurs. One cannot take life for granted. And besides, childbirth is dangerous, creatures can easily die" He was such a typical boy
SPOILER!!: firth's first birth?
Then he proudly announced, "
I's a girl!"
Still smiling, he gently but firmly picked up the baby and brought it over to the smaller bed the students had prepared. "
This is a fairly small calf, only around 60 or 65 pounds. Bu' firs' things first. If yeh'd like ter help stimulate the calf's breathing and rub its back an' belly a bit, please quietly an' without shovin' come an' do so now." Chaos was not what Bonny or the baby needed at the moment. "
I do have for yeh," he raised his wand and Summoned something from his hut, "
a box of gloves for yeh so yeh don' have ter get yer hands all gross and wet."[/COLOR][/FONT]

It was a girl that was too awesome. Was 60 pounds small? Sarah weighed about 90 or something. Of course she wanted to help with the other part. She took some gloves and followed the keeper and began to rub the babies back. "Cutie" she cooed at is. All babies caused an emotion like that, unless they were pest babies.
Then she heard Alice say something about naming it for the headmistress, which caused Sarah to mumble under her breath
"if you do, there better be a mirror in the barn for the cow with its own house elf in attendent and the cow would be forever occupied in her appearance"
