Happy Mother's Day to all of you moms out there. I know from reading journals that there are many phenomenal, loving, strong mothers out there, Enjoy your day!
Just in time for the occasion, I looked out into the totally fenced back yard to see a mommy duck and ten tiny, fluffy, yellow ducklings. I put the slat up on Lucy's doggie door, and opened both gates to allow them a way to leave. No dice. It took almost two hours for them to go, and when they did, they went the way they came in: Through a tiny sliver of an opening where our fence meets the neighbor's. I wish B'Doodle had been home to take a picture. They sure were cute...
To the most wondrous friend and mom a person could ask for, a million miles away - I love you and miss you.
