Ducks!

The pond across the street from our house is full of life. There have been duck couples all spring and now we know why! Yesterday we discovered the baby ducks. Julia loved seeing them and she even called them "baby". Julia's bedroom window faces the pond, so every morning when she wakes up the first word out of her mouth is "duck" and we have to look out the window and say good morning to the ducks. She also has to say good night to the ducks before going to bed.

This was quite the sight last evening...the baby ducks were swimming all around the pond; sometimes slowly and then other times in fast sprints. We think they were learning how to swim and wade in the water. It was so neat to watch.
