It was a beautiful late fall day. Grandpa and Barbara drove up to Chelsea to
deliver an advent calendar for Karine.
As she was at work, they left the calendar for her and had some outdoor
time with the Bowman boys. They were
helping Papa set up their Christmas lights. David was pleased to show us his
toothless smile. Then the chickens
arrived. As snow is cold for their feet,
they stop and stand on one leg for awhile, tucking the other foot up under their
bodies to warm it up. The boys showed us
where one chicken had laid eggs under a canoe – they didn’t know how long these
had been there so decided they wouldn’t eat them Sam collected two eggs from the chicken house
and one egg from Ross’s chickens next door (they were looking after them), so
grandparents had three eggs to take home. (They were delicious!)
Kirk decided it was time to take a hike to their mailbox which
was up the road. David received a nice
birthday card from cousin Mary Janet. The
boys were very pleased to get notes and homemade crocheted Christmas snowmen for
their Christmas tree, from Jenny Craddock, their grandparents’ neighbour in
Nepean.
