Life is a wonderful adventure.<br /><br />Sarah: Two are three months and one is four months, and I can't remember which is which. I think the Polish is the most physically mature though. I love that each of your chickens is named after a grandmother. That's a great idea.<br /><br />Cheyenne: I think Harriet (my grandmother) would get a kick out of Harriet (my chicken). They're both funny creatures.<br /><br />Lucy: Thank you. And, as a reminder, you're pretty darned wonderful yourself. <br /><br />Another Outspoken Female: I was using my iPod and accidentally (on the wickedly small screen that my big fingers have a hard time maneuvering) hit reject instead of publish on your comment. I'm sorry. Thank you kindly for your sweet words.
