At church today, our pastor remarked that this holiday should be called "Mothering Day" because not every woman is a mother in the literal sense, but most of us females find ourselves mothering creatures of one kind or another. Whether they have two legs or four, whether they're covered with hair, fur, feathers or scales, we girls just can't help nurturing little living things. And that is something to celebrate! Without all this mothering going on, our world would be a heartless place indeed.
The highlight of my Mothering Day was watching this little Bantam hen with her new chicks. It was mothering at its finest!
Here's hoping you've had a Mothering Day that made you smile!
Oh, so sweet! You are right "Mothering Day" would be a better name...
ReplyDeleteI agree: little fuzzy chicks are about as sweet as it gets! Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteWhat a great series! The little one tucked under a wing are especially precious.
ReplyDeleteGetting good photos was definitely a challenge: little chicks don't want to be still! Mama was very cooperative, though. These are the best of dozens... Thanks for visiting!
DeleteOh my, how cute! I love the picture of the little one hiding in the wing of its mother :) Thanks for sharing this sweetness with Roses of Inspiration.
