Tail Feathers - Update

If you haven't read the last post, then read it before this one.

My tail feathers are feeling much better!!  I can actually bend over now and pick up my children.  It still hurts if I sit too long, but overall I am better!  Thank you, Lord!!! 

Our duck's tail feathers, on the other hand, are not doing so well.  :(  As we were pulling out of our garage and down the driveway this morning to head to church, we saw our duck down by the sidewalk.  And... then we saw it's head a few feet away.  Grant immediately started screaming because he was devastated!  Gerald and I felt really bad for our sensitive, little farmer!!  I guess this is his first big lesson in nature.  Grady handled it very well and said he wouldn't cry.  Very brave!!  Gillian handled it the best and made faces at me all the way to church as I sat in the back to console Grant.  Gerald disposed of the duck and the eggs, and now we have our front porch back as well as an empty nest.  :(

Oh no! That is terrible!!

Glad you are feeling better! What an ordeal! Yes, I admit, I am still chuckling about the chair that wasn't there! ;)

Oh....so sad about the duck, but glad you're feeling better. We had a bad experience with my Parents dog and our pet duck several years ago. My kids were devistated! Hope poor Grant cheers up soon!
