You have to picture this....

Don't tell anyone

I normally have Yoko tend my sheep on our acreage (all 3 acres on a mountain).  Yo knows the sheep inside and out and the sheep know Yo. Yesterday, I decided to have Jet watch the sheep graze while I washed Yoko on the picnic table down by my roses.  As soon as I called Yoko over to get on the table, I gave Jet a command to get around the backside of the sheep.  You would have thought the sheep had seen a ghost.  They were standing on their tippy toes facing Jet.  Geeez.....I was thinking...Hey, it's only Jet!  I obviously have spoiled my sheep with Yoko.  Finally, they settled and I began sudsing up Yoko on the picnic table.  I still could see some of the sheep, so I knew Jet was in the vicinity, hopefully, keeping an eye on the nine sheep, 4 adults and 5 yearlings.
Next thing I know Jet is bringing me the sheep.  I'm not sure what he is doing and then, I count.  EIGHT sheep, not NINE?  Where is the smallest yearling Barb?  "JET?  Look back," I yell with authority.  With that he takes off down the property.  He doesn't come back.  I'm starting to get a bit PO'ed at this point.  I still have Yoko all suds up'ed.  I tell Yoko to stay and I go for a walk down the hill to see where Jet might be and where oh where is the little (may I add, stupid) barb?  I find Jet at the lower gate of the sheep pen.  No barb?  I say with authority (again), "Find her."  Jet starts up along the back side of the pen.  I don't see any lamb in the vicinity.  Jet it's one thing to be old, but you're not exactly what I would call dumb, I'm thinking.
I probably take the dumb prize.  Here comes Yoko up over the hill with soap suds flying, mud caked on her legs and a grin from ear to ear.  She pens all NINE of the sheep.  Where was the lamb?  I'll never know.  But, I do know that Yoko knew!
Unfortunately, for Yo, her reward was to go back up the hill and get re-hosed down and finish her bath.  And, Jet...just for looking stupid, you're getting a bath, too.
