Hi All,

Well I’m back from convention.  I had a wonderful time as always, learned a ton, seen a ton of new stuff too.  I’m back with great ideas and I cannot wait to share them with you, but first I must play the catch up game.  So, since I’ve no time to stamp at the moment I thought you would enjoy seeing how Momma Goldie and the chicks are doing.

I found them resting peacefully under a tree this afternoon. The chicks are now a month old.  The little black one is a bit camera shy.  Actually, it’s a bit afraid of the human that is holding the camera, lol.  These chicks will think of me differently since I did not hand raise them like I have all the others. I’ll win them over later with treats, lol.

When I approach them to get some pictures all of nosy girls followed me to see what was up and disturbed their peaceful scene.

I put a little bit of cracked corn down for the girls and the babies got right in the mix trying to get them some too.

They are really getting along well.  Their Momma sees to that!  I have witnessed in horror as one unlucky chicken got a bit too close to one of the chicks and the next thing I know Goldie is standing on the hens back pulling out feathers.  Yep, that only need happen once and everyone gets the idea that she is not playing around.

It is extremely funny that Motherhood brings out such aggression when our offspring are being threatened.  Goldie has always been at the bottom of the pecking order but as a mother she is feared and respected.

I will need to think up names for the chicks but I first want to see if they are Roosters or Hens and that will not happen for about 6 more weeks.

Before I sign off today, I want to thank each and everyone of my customers and my team.  On awards night at Convention I found out that I made FOUNDER’S CIRCLE for the fifth time, which means I am in the top 100 of the company out of over 40,000 demonstrators.  It blows my mind!  I do know that I couldn’t do it without you!  Thank you for being so loyal my friends.  I love you!

See that big flower in the photo, they were everywhere at convention.  I wanted them but I just could not figure out how to smuggle them out, lol.  They would have been awesome in my office though.  🙂  Darn, I will have to think of a way to make them.

I will be back tomorrow with a fun project after I get a few things caught up and some much needed rest tonight, lol.

May your day be extra special!

Until my next post. . . . . . .  .
