All together now, ready? Awwwwwwww!!
Isn't that the sweetest little face?
Sweet face here popped up while we were tilling the garden. His clever momma had built a little hutch right inside the confines of the garden fence and jr. who is now on his own, decided to stay. We certainly didn't want the tiller to get him, but we didn't want to leave him in the garden either, so I brought him out to the side woods to set him free. I held him for a minute, thinking briefly "aw, can't I keep him?" and then gently set him down, telling him "off to the woods with you, grow big and strong". He sat for a few seconds obviously relieved to be free from his captor, stretched, then took a few hops. In a moment his hops turned to running and my heart sang at the sight. Then suddenly this furry little Flo-Jo banked left and ran...right...back...to...the...garden.
