Seth is absolutely in LOVE with the chickens on this farm. Everyday he goes in the barns with his dad and helps him pick dead birds, or looks for weak ones, etc. 2 weeks ago we shipped another flock of chickens and Seth suddenly found himself with little to do for 14 days. There were no birds to take care of, no regular morning schedule.
As him and I were sitting in Tim Hortons last week he told me, "Mom, I miss the chickens. Can we go to the grocery store to see them?" Oh, that boy always makes me smile!
Well, he had been waiting all week for Friday to come--knowing that Friday was the day the chickens would arrive. As the Maple Leaf trucks entered the yard Seth was ecstatic! "My chickens are here! My chickens are here!" He dashed out the door and was in the barn in a shot. "I will help dad in the blue loader!" he called back to me.
So I followed him out and snapped a few pictures. This boy is truly a farmer at heart--already at the age of 3.
