This past Friday we lost our 2yr old son. He was born with several heart defects, but had done amazingly well and his loss is a shock. At first I was going to re home our 11 week old chickens. I was worried that I did not have it in me to care for them. As all our friends and family came to our home they mentioned how peaceful it was to watch them and spend time out by the coop. I find myself out there several times a day and I take comfort in the their peaceful nature. We are planning a memorial garden out by the coop and a bench so I can sit and watch them as I reflect. Here is a link to my little boy's site, we kept a blog of his entire life. www.kevinmatthewkruse.com
