As many of you know, Marmee loves her Ducky.
I often find them together, lying there on the shelf at the end of the tub.
Ducky shares Marmee’s love for the birds.
Together they watch them flit by the window, back and forth, back and forth.
I try not to eavesdrop on their conversations.
But I think the two of them could talk for hours and never run out of things to say.
Once, when I asked Marmee if maybe she needed a new friend. Maybe someone new? Perhaps a goose, or a monkey, or a piggy?
“Nope…” she replied.
“Just Ducky.”
And there you have it. ❤
Often seen two by two, they glide together slowly, as if they were one.
Pressing into the water that fans out behind them…
But if you listen very carefully, really listen… you will hear them whispering softly to one another…
Just when you think you’re feeling a bit of energy, those eyelids start to get veeeerrry droopy…
Wait a minute, I think she just moved!
