Alex and Martha Esh , a modest young Couple married very much in love. She being four months pregnant. He very excited about them being first time parents. Intrigued by it all is what it felt like. There was baby showers, he made a new baby bed along with furniture to match. His wife and her Ma’am knitting baby clothes tiny little outfits. His big hands touched with a heartfelt appreciation of life made from he and his wife .
A lifetime memory of forever being alive is an emotional moment . Evolves into ancestry coming from a long line of Yoders and Eshs.
Everything perfect and just anxiously awaiting the delivery. By a family midwife Moira , loved by those who have used her to deliver their babies safely. Would be her delivery Midwife.
A harvest moon is low in the sky on the evening of an unusual moment came. Right after bedtime both resting comfortably his body curved around hers. Whispered sweet words in her ear kissed his big hands. On the verge of sleep and comfort joy abound the feeling of being sleepy.
A quiet rumble of heavy wheels sunk into the moist black earth. Packing it where the big semi wheels settled to unload the cattle in back. A weighted doors of a semi unloaded leaving out cattle. Unannounced head of cattle left a dark semi flooding out into an uncertain area the field .
With heavy hooves did run into the open field . Grazed to the ground hungry as ever from being locked in the truck . Into a private property of Alex and Martha Esh. Unbeknownst them were these stolen cattle. Dropped off and left , yet why?
The Semi Trailer left, and the truck drove away license plate removed from the trailer. No sign of a truck company to go back and find the driver name.
Some penetrated into the night . A crisp fall breeze and leaves blew all about from the Semi truck leaving. Settling down once again to a quiet night.
What was going on here the individual sold these to someone and promised to deliver them. Instead brought them back to the same town Kalona, Iowa.
The man who bought them would never receive his delivery left empty handed . The Thief took the money for them and left never to return.
