We lost our good friend, Pelican, today. She was a lovely white Pekin duck. The oldest duck in the barnyard and the friendliest too. Pelican was ClaireAnna's favorite. The only duck of hers that would happily eat out of her hand. I guess she was stressed from the breeding season and never quite recovered. She developed an infection and though we treated her, she passed away today. We've had a lot of tears and sadness thinking about how much we loved that sweet, funny, little duck. ClaireAnna has drawn a picture of Pelican to help her remember. Pelican had a free, happy, duck life and we sure are going to miss her in the barnyard.
This blog is a place for me to share pictures, tell stories and write about our family, our farm in Dover, Arkansas, our Faith in Jesus Christ , and our love for nature, animals and people. I hope it often makes you laugh, sometimes causes you to think, and sincerely gives you insight into who we are as we travel this amazing journey.
