Runtamuffin.... is a cute little chicken that learns quickly that people are it's friends, and that thought carries Runtamuffin throughout her entire life. This fun picture book for children captures life in a barnyard, while teaching important truths to it's readers.
Imagine you want to give someone a gift unique to them, what would it be?
In Lasse's case....he wanted to be a farmer...the gift, just for him...chickens! Oh my the girls had fun in making this gift special for him. You could sense the delight they had in the creating, and their love for him.
Near....Close by....Almost......Similar
I have to admit that as I write this piece that I'm feeling downcast in my heart... and I know that much of it is that I'm tired and feeling daunted by the road ahead, feeling like, for now, that all I'll ever feel is nauseated for the rest of my life. I KNOW I KNOW... an exaggeration I am sure, but for now, that's how I feel. In reality it will probably be only 4-5 months if I am fortunate. Maybe a year or so on the outside (going from my quick research). But right now I don't feel very full of hope. It's nice that the doc knows what is wrong with me and is working to alleviate some of the symptoms of how this is presenting in my body. ('cause my body is a bit of an odd duck at the best of times).
Anyways, the word for the week is Near... and that's been playing in the back of my head for the past ...oh.. almost 12 hours now. :)
