Our Ducks

Duck Eggs!

Ryan Kraeger

Some time last week:

Mommy: “The ducks are checking out the duckmobile! The two white ones were even going in the laying boxes!”

Later that day:

Seppi was upset that Winnie was using HIS yellow wheelbarrow. Until I told him he was big enough to use the big green one!
Then it was a race!
Trying to teach them to put their tools away. Oddly, these two are better at it than their older sisters are.

Sunday afternoon Uncle sent us this picture:

They like our Duckmobile!

"I only remember the very first part of the book where he described the man of steel and velvet and I remember the deep chord that phrase struck. I remember the image I had of a hand of living steel wearing a velvet glove, a hand that could crush or caress, strike a killing blow or wipe away tears, lift mountains or cradle an infant. The rest of the book was an afterthought." From an essay about Aubrey Andelin's "Man of Steel and Velvet".
