A few months ago Grandpa Steve got rid of all his chickens. But now he has 16 new chicks! The kids and I had some extra time yesterday so we swung by for a visit.
[I said, "Mae, Grandpa might not be there". She replied, "Yes he will. Grandpa Steve doesn't go anywhere".]
We headed into the garage to visit the flock.

| Mae's new chicken, Mary Louise. She named her herself based on this book. (But then we found out that one of our favorite friends is named Mary Louise. We just know her as Marz.) There is a marking on her head so that we know which one she is. Etta is going to name one Queen Elizabeth. She hasn't been officially selected, but if the chicken that is growing the fastest and is the biggest is truly a chicken and not a rooster, she may be it. |
