Redemption

In my last post I was slightly complaining about "the girls" and their rearranging of some of my Spring bulbs! Only so slightly! We love them and truthfully they could probably do more damage and we would find another excuse for their chicken like behavior! But this morning when I went to welcome them to another day (however not as sunny or dry as the previous days) to my surprise I found 3 EGGS! Eggs have been pretty sparse with Winter, molting and Beyonce's illness.....so you can imagine how pleased I was to see these 3 little golden brown eggs!

Thank you girls.......keep it up!

February Girls and Sun

Another beautiful day in February and the girls intend to make the most of it! When I went out early this morning to let them out of the safety of their house they were in a big hurry to get out! Most mornings in Winter they barely get up when I open the door. Somehow I think they knew today was Saturday and it was going to be a great day!



These were beautiful crocus from last year! I have looked around these past couple of sunny days hoping to find some evidence of this years beauties! But I am afraid "the Girls" may have scratched them up over the last months! Good thing I have pictures!



For my friends who knew that Beyonce was on deaths door this past summer....well here she is now! All back to her healthy beautiful self! My saying has always been "a sick chicken is a dead chicken" But my husband and I were not going to give up on her. So with force feeding food and water, antibiotics and then a variety of any type of food we could get her to eat she is now the lovely Beyonce again!



Here are all three girls in warmer days of the summer soaking up some sun rays. I tried to tell them this morning that it was going to be dry but it was not going to be this warm! I am sure they will find a sunny spot today and do a little sun bathing!

Enjoy the sunny Saturday......I know "the Girls" will!

Short Month But Longer Days

This picture was taken from my back porch at about 6:45 am

I love Febraury! I know that sounds very strange to most people but for me one who gets up very early and has outside chores the early light is a welcomed gift. Instead of fumbling around in complete darkness you can enjoy knowing where you are walking with a little extra light! And at the end of the day instead of driving home with just the lights from cars to see you have the light of day! A beautiful sight!

This was taken from the same spot about an hour later..good morning sunshine!

What a beautiful early February morning! The only thing that would have been better is if I could have stayed home and enjoyed the whole day in my backyard!

The other reason I love this month is that both of my children were born in February! And of course there is Valentines Day!

Enjoy February, enjoy the early light and enjoy the next 5 or 6 days that the weatherman says we are going to have sun!
