As I saw there was a post from Mrs. Chickendad, it brightened my spirit...then I had the most awful feeling that one of these days the post won't be fun any more. Then I saw it and it almost made me sick. I wonder why I had that "feeling"" It hurts as if I had lost one of my own. Here come the tears....I'm so sorry....I can't tell you how sad this makes me! I've been sending your emails to a friend (who has no chickens but appreciates mine) and she "knows" Barbara also. I'll send this to her and break her heart like it does mine..and yours...and all of us who have loved reading your stories and grew to treasure Barbara along with you.
I was so sad when Olivia lost Fatima. I had her book, autographed to my granddaughter, with Fatima's footprint on it. Then I learned of her death. That was hard to take.
This is just too much. Many hugs and prayers coming your way!
