Today has been a great day! I feel so happy. I love school! (with my kids and myself) I love our schedule. I had a fantastic time at Pilate's (an exercise group I started; we did a video) I got all my chicks and ducklings situated out in the chicken shed. My kids are all tucked into bed. I read to them for a bit before lights out. I worked on school. Now I'm snuggled next to my hubby and am going to head to bed after this. Such a nice day!
I went out to do one last thing with my chicks this afternoon. I came in the coop and several came running up. I squatted down and a few of them let me pet right under their beaks. I was a bit surprised. They were much more skittish the last time I spent time with them. I decided to get some food and feed them from my hand. They dove in with a vengeance! I thought, wow, they must really be hungry. Maybe they don't know where their food is. (I had moved them to a new spot in the coop to make room for our ducklings) So I took them over to the food. They looked at the food and then at me. I showed them again. They were giving me the "not so much" look. So I thought I would try feeding them again. I got another scoop and held it out for them. Once again they scarfed the food, and sometimes my skin, until every last bit was gone! Oh, my chicks love me.
Well, I'm going to head off to bed. I have a long day ahead of me tomorrow.
Kid Moment for the Day:
The kids are adjusting to Daddy being gone again. He is home a lot during the winter, and is slammed in the spring, especially until all his customers are mulched. Hope was really missing him and decided to make him a welcome home sign. It said "Welcome home, Daddy! Thanks for working so hard! Love Hope T.C." He got it late that night, after a really long day at work. It meant a lot to him.
Good night!
