I've been in some sort of "mood" the last few days. One of those periods of time when someone asks you, "What's wrong?" and your answer is "EVERYTHING". My kids have been tired and recuperating from a busy weekend. The microscopic amount of patience I started out with, evaporated quickly. I keep spilling stuff and breaking things. I washed a rug with some white socks, and dyed all the socks a very ugly shade of brown.
But we brought home something today that has improved my mood a little. I'm tellin' ya, you can't sit and watch these little things for very long and still have your tail in a knot. Just watching the girls excitement, and watching my 5 month old son sit and watch them with his baby-face grin, was enough to cheer me up :)
They're bantams. Which I haven't been able to have since I left home 10 years ago. My mom and sister bought/built me this fancy little chicken coop for my birthday (ah, how well they know me), and the kids and I are going to have all sorts of fun :)
