Gems of the farm...

When you stop and think of some things, it just makes them even better.  Usually grabbing eggs in the morning is pretty mindless, wouldn't you think?  Well, this morning I actually stopped and took a moment after I touched the eggs...they were so warm! It is a little chilly this morning so the eggs were extra warm. I pulled 4 eggs out of the nesting box (and of course I also pulled one out of the hay house but that one was far from warm and toasty!).  As I did, one of the ladies was still in the box. I thanked her kindly as I took their donations (and dodged a peck and a hiss of course) and felt the warm eggs in my hand and remembered these little gems come from those little living things....what extra special eggs we have; so fresh that they warm your heart.


Thanks girls!
