Grasias pel webos, or a thank you card from a bilingual 5-year-old
There are some wonderful things about living in The South — magnolias, croaking frogs and green hills. And, “Thank You” cards. People still send them regularly and oh happy me, look at the one I just got:
“Grasias Pel Webos!”
Which translates from a 5-year-old’s phonetics to “Gracias por los huevos.” (Thanks for the eggs)

Parenting.com: Jogging with guineas
The jogged into on-coming traffic with 11 guineas race-waddling behind me.
Oh yes, I did.
Soy una loca.
“I ran toward home along the side of the road with 11 guinea hens flapping, calling, and running behind me. I kept thinking it had to be quite a sight, and that I surely didn’t want any of us to [...]

Tell me how beautiful my Guinea fowl are

The guineas are 4.5-months-old and they’re apparently as entertaining to the people who drive by as they are to me. People are parking in our drive to watch them and my husband and I get [...]

Guineas make the big time: Parenting.com
The guineas premiered on Parenting.com yesterday. They are big and fabulous. A couple of them have ventured out of the coop, but the others are reluctant. They are so chicken it will take a few days for them to realize that it is OK to free range and free our land of those garrapatas malditas.

The children have moved out
The guineas were transported to their coop Friday morning. Notice my kid still in her pajamas for the big event.

Guinea Playdate
Yes, I have been spending way too much time with the guineas. They poop a lot, but they don’t talk, so there’s that.
The birds, our soon-to-be tick-fighting army of 12, are 4-weeks old and beginning to lose their baby down. Eventually, they’ll have no feathers on their necks. Feo, but fierce.
