Hi everyone, I hope you are all healthy and happy! Well, the most incredible thing just happened and I couldn’t wait to share it with you!
I was making lunch when Dinghy Duckford (you haven’t met him yet) stopped by. I invited him in and asked if he could stay and share a bite with me. We hadn’t seen each other for awhile and both of us wanted to catch up, so in he popped. He is always great fun to be with.
We were chatting and munching when suddenly Dinghy laid down his sandwich, cocked his little head to one side and said “what is that noise?”
“I don’t hear anything…could it be thunder?” I asked.
“No, I don’t think so as my beak isn’t swelling up and you know if it’s weather related that always happens. Let’s go outside because something is definitely going on!”
Well… as soon as we stepped outside, not only could I hear what Dinghy heard but it was now close enough that we could both hear honking, squeaking, laughing and speaking!!!
It was Lashley and his flock…they were almost overhead and Lashley was in the lead position! Grabbing what was left of our sandwiches, we raced out the door. “Dinghy…can you take care of the other side of the creek and I’ll take this…the critters are gonna want to know the flock is about to land!”
Well those lil orange, webbed feet raced over the creek bridge to the other side and both of us were running, waving and yelling up to Lashley.
“WE’LL MEET YOU IN THE MEADOW LASHLEY!”
So that’s where we’re headed…soooo excited to be with our dear friend again! Will keep you updated on the Welcome Home Party but in the meantime, don’t forget to be good, be kind and say your prayers.
Love Hartlie and the critters ❤️
Ps. Do you think you could make a “WELCOME HOME LASHLEY” sign for the party? If you make one, send it to us on Facebook and we’ll make sure Lashley sees it!
