Let me tell you! My older siblings go to a birthday party and guess who gets to pick up the slack. You guessed it . . .ME. First I get a bucket of grain for the horses.
Oh boy this grain is heavy. No wonder those horses get so big eating all of this. Next, I went on to feed the dog and the cats. I won't bore you with those details. However the cats have never been so happy to see me ( I wonder why?). Now, I am off to the coop. For all of you who have been to my house, you know how far it is. I am walking in snow up to my knees. It all at once seems much farther than anticipated.
I finally made it! This is my favorite part: collecting the eggs. Just don't tell the other kids! Shhhh, I don't want them to stick me with this job all the time. I seem to be getting more eggs than them. I know why: they are afraid to move the chickens out of the nest to get all the eggs. I am not afraid of some little chicken pecks. I just stick my hand under and go for it. Now we know who the real chickens are (Jadin, Alex and Zach)!
Ahhh Ha! I brought in the most eggs ever! I think there are 18 or more. I would count them but I am afraid they will roll off the table (you know like the poor meatball).
