Spring Chick

Have I mentioned Cassidy's egg business? No? Well, since we didn't have much to do around here we decided to help out our neighbor with her surplus of eggs and "sell" them to a few other neighbors. It involves Cassidy and I (and maybe two other girls) gathering eggs most days, washing them and delivering, then picking up some feed every once in a while when we are at the feed store. Cassidy loves it and the "grown-up" responsibility of delivering eggs and reminding me about getting the feed. She is also in love with the newest part....chicks! Kathy gave her the added responsibility of helping to tame down this year's chicks by petting and holding them while she is at work. Cassidy will get to pick one out to band and have as her "own" as soon as they get a little bigger. Just look at that face! She is so gentle and careful with them and makes sure they have clean water and a little scratch.


Our other spring chicks have been enjoying some outside time while I've been trying to tackle the weeds and get ready to plant...30 minutes at a time! They are pretty cute too...
