Monday morning the boys were at my house and Denton suggested that we go for a hike. Hudson and I thought it sounded like a good idea. Matilda always goes on our hikes, but on our way out they asked if Willow and Rose could join us. So, there we went;

three humans, two goats and one dog.

Denton, (surprise, surprise) appointed himself to be the leader.

We found a little frog.

We went down to the creek and then

stopped to look at the buckeye crop.

There was also a moment of silence at One-eyed Sally’s grave.
As we were approaching this spot, Denton said,

“Listen to the birds singing a beautiful song.” To which Hudson replied,
“Yes, it was my great- grandmother’s song.”
What a wonderful blessing.
That child makes stuff up as he goes along! I laughed from beginning…Denton being in charge…to end…Hudson and his crazy remark!
