A Farm Girl Has To Do What She Has To Do!

Flowers for you! Praying for you today!

Good morning!

It is going to be a busy day! We are going to go to some special National Day of Prayer events, but I wanted you to see what I did today. It is kind of funny probably, but I had to do something. As you read we had quite a time last night with Little Miss Fluff. She is doing well this morning, but the older eggs have not done anything yet. I sure wish something would happen.

Anyway, I had this idea of taking an old chicken nester out to where Mr. Rooster, Miss Americana and Little Red Hen stay most of their time. They can’t go in to the big coop, because they are all mean. So I thought....... “I will take the nester to them”. Now where should I put it? Out our kitchen window is an old old cedar tree that is taller than our farm house and our house is two stories high. That is a big tree. That is where they spend all of their time scratching around and eating........ yes, bugs &worms...... so they can make eggs. Happy thought! That seemed to be the perfect place to put the nester don’t ya think? I fixed it all up with nice straw and made it comfy for the girls. Now we will see what they do. The only thing I had to build it up off the ground with were these old bricks. Now I need to build a box around the bottom and it would look beau....ti.....fulness! How about a whole little building on top of it. Oh I am making work for myself, but it is a cute idea! I have a fun blog I love to go to and Tammy is building her own coop. I am so impressed with what she is doing......... by herself! You can go over and see her at Flat Creek Farm, it is a nice place to check out. Well, here is what I made. Doesn't it look so cozy? I should put a bench under this tree, bring my Bible and sit...... I think I like that idea also. Can't let this brain rest.......... right?

While I was out there fixing things up Little Red Hen came up to me again. She snuggles with me and I love it. I have never had a chicken like this before. I was the first one she saw when she was incubated last year, so maybe she thinks I am her mom. What am I thinking? I am her Mom!!!!!! Do you think........? I think so.

She does not care if I touch her. She is a precious little chicken.

She wanted to see the camera. Cute???? She probably knows I am going to put her picture on my blog, because I tell her all about the families that look at the pictures. So all of you out there, she is just saying hello. You can write back to her if you want. Okay maybe that is stupid to talk back to a chicken........... any kids out there?

Blessings and don't forget today is National Day of Prayer. Lets do some praying for our country!
