Sometimes you hear yourself saying things as a parent and have to laugh at the absurdity of it all. Aaron LOVES our chickens. He would be out in the chicken yard every morning and all afternoon if I let him. He tosses food and bread crusts for them, follows them around, and loves to catch one and hold it for awhile. So, I wonder what was in his 3 year old mind when I looked out the window and saw him sitting on a chicken. Feet straight out in front of him, sitting calm as can be. So now, when he heads out the back door, we have this conversation.
me: "Aaron, are you going to nice to the chickens?"
Aaron: "Yes."
me: "Aaron, are you going to feed the chickens?"
Aaron: Yes."
me: "Aaron, will you promise me that you won't sit on the chickens?"
Aaron: "Yes Mom, I promise."
Needless to say, our egg counts have been decreasing this week. But Aaron is having a great time!
