Little baby ducklings and goslings are always so cute!

Oh, they are adorable! I grew up near a little city park that was always packed with adorable baby ducks and geese this time of year. Seeing a little flock of fluffies is always nostalgic! 🙂

Me too! They’re even cuter in person, because they make the cutest little “beebeebee” sound. My parents used to have an apartment near a pond with nonmigratory Canada geese, and their goslings were always so cute. I would take leftover bread to the pond and feed the goslings.

I’m afraid to go in the Tractor Supply Company stores during spring, because they have a variety of chicks and ducklings and baby bunnies. Chicks and ducklings are adorable, but baby bunnies might be THE cutest things on the planet. And I start thinking about how I could get some pens and keep them in the back yard. Then I think that Bill might very well divorce me.

Whenever I see that word I always think of Ryan Gosling. But I pronounce it “goose-ling”, because its too confusing otherwise
