My husband and I have eleven grandchildren. We are very proud of them. Retirement and grandchildren just seem to go together. Isn't that wonderful. I wanted to share some pictures with you today.
The children's song about the little ducks leaving the nest to fly away has always been one of my favorites. Every mother has seen their babies fly away and rejoiced. Life comes full circle. Animals live that same cycle. Babies grow up. Birds leave the nest. Life goes on. So when the three ducks show up every year near my patio I am not surprised. But I am puzzled that it always seems to be the same three. Something just doesn't seem right. It appears the one did not fly away at all. Five little ducks Went out to play Over the hills and far away. The mommy duck went "quack, quack quack," Four little ducks came swimming back... And then Three Two and One. A drake, a female duck (a hen) and a not quite a drake but still not a hen gather here on the 5th green of the golf course. She leads and the other two follow along obediently. They eat, sleep, and guard each other. Each and every day this time of year they come. I have not named them. Jinxing them would be very pos...
Love the gorgeous red hair! Can't wait to see everybody! :)
ReplyDeleteIsn't that hair something. Actually I had an aunt on my mother's side that hair that beautiful color. However, I think this little guy is his mother's child!
