A Mommy Story

(Apologies for cloudy photos – I was snapping them behind a screen.)

One of the reasons we bought this house was because of the woods behind it. We love having the deer come by and visit. When we were the second house built, we’d see the deer nearly every day. But now that our entire development is finished, and the one behind us has cut down some of the woods, the deer are finding it harder to survive in this area.

However, every few weeks, I’ll spy one or two poking their heads out of the woods as they move to the east, across a field to a nearby pond. In the coming years that field will be filled with large buildings, and the deer will again be forced from their environment. For now, I’ll enjoy their visits, and let them have as much birdseed as they want.

To play along for Haiku Friday, follow these steps:

1. Write your own haiku on your blog. You can do one or many, all following a theme or just random. What’s a haiku, you ask? Click here.

2. Sign the Mister Linky below with your name and the link to your haiku post (the specific post URL, not your main blog URL). DON’T sign unless you have a haiku this week. If you need help with this, please let me know.

3. Pick up a Haiku Friday button to display on the post or in your sidebar by clicking the button at the top.

REMEMBER: Do not post your link unless you have a haiku this week! I will delete any links without haiku!
