On Monday, our day old baby chicks arrived around 6 AM at the Post Office. I always look forward to the phone call. It was 27 degrees outside. I brought them home and warmed them up with some gro gel, water, and a heat lamp. The gro gel is a jelly like substance that you put onto their food to give them nutrients. A little extra boost after coming all the way from Iowa! The kids love them and everyone has picked out their favorite. They have also named them. A lady from our church also ordered with us. We kept 15 out of the 28. We will be redesigning our coop and pen. The 3 three year old chickens will be moved to make room for the newbies in a few weeks. We are finally getting some eggs from the old girls since daylight savings time . I love Springtime and all that it brings! I was just talking to my Kindergarten Awana class last night about God's creation of animals and how fun it is to just sit and observe. Baby chicks are sooo busy! Like I should be right now instead of writing this!
Well, here I am doing what I thought I'd never do in all of my days! I've been regularly reading, on a daily basis, the posts of several people and finding myself thinking that some of the things we do or experience as a family would be fun to share with others. Not every day is newsworthy, but most days always have something, however small, that is worth savoring. I used to do so well at taking pictures of everything and now Macy does most of that for the family and does it very well. Speaking of Macy.....here is a picture I couldn't resist taking this past week. Isn't homeschooling great?
