This week my husband bought me 2 living things and some chocolate. The chocolate is history so that’s not worth mentioning…except it might still be hanging on around my waist.
He bought me some pretty flowers “just because.” Do you like getting flowers “just because?” Does it make you feel like a stinker [...]

No, you can’t swim here. This is our section.
I want to swim with you. Let me have a turn in this spot.
Stop fighting. Share the water, there’s lots of it. Be good and leave me alone for 15 minutes to take a bath and eat a little bit.
P.S. This is [...]
This is the nest at our house.
These are the eggs that lay in the nest at our house.
This is the duck that laid the eggs that lay in the nest at our house.
This is the bush that sheltered the duck
that laid the eggs
that lay in the nest at our house.
This is the gander that guarded [...]

I will say of the LORD,
He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

Remember the ducklings that wouldn’t stay in the fence, had to fight the black birds for food, and loved to play in the water?
They are free to wander in the day now. We still shut them up at night.
This morning they woke my husband and I up at 6:45am. The Mama had flown [...]

If your computer monitor is visible from your table or living room I have an idea for you.
We used to have pictures of our kids as a slideshow for our screensaver. In this apartment the computer desk is 6 feet from the dinner table so they were really watching their own pictures. A [...]

The pony rides beckoned us to the local craft fair. With 3 cowboy/girl wanna-bes how could I resist?
We weren’t there long because it is so hot and humid. I actually remembered to pack a cooler with drink and apples. So glad I did.
My 3 year old would have stood and watched the [...]
Still have seven ducklings! Sometimes the Momma Duck sits outside of the gate and watches them. I know how she feels.
Posted in Aloha Friday, animals on May 30th, 2008
Kailani at An Island Life hosts Aloha Friday every week. “In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing heavy or [...]

We are down to seven ducklings from the original ten. That’s better odds than if they were in “the wild.” Usually only 1/3 of a nest of baby ducks will live to be adult ducks. They must be a pretty tasty “meal.”
Please excuse the photography. I’m not a great photographer to [...]
