It is with some sadness that we note Shelly's passing. Heather and Heidi worked together with two friends from the Lee family, dug a grave, painted a box, painted a tombstone, and buried Shelly in the box.
Shelly is one of the hens they've been raised for a few months. Shelly was the victim of a fox attack Friday.
Kids are amazing. They show us completely different ways to see things. I saw the bird as a source of eggs, an interesting critter to watch, and as a possible source of meat if we were in real difficulty.
Heather and Heidi saw the bird as a pet for caring, nurturing, and monitoring. A wonderful alternate perspective.
