Da Gathering met at a friend’s house just down the road from me today. I love when we meet here because for one thing, my friend always welcomes us with open arms. But I also love it because she has chickens, and every time I drive up, the girls come running to meet me. I love their happy waddling, clucking to me as they come. I always try to have treats for them.

Today I looked out the window, and through the lovely magnolia tree blossoms, saw two of the girls poking around in the lawn. It was such a pretty picture that it had to be my photo of the day.
