I leave in the morning for the mountains and will be gone about a week. Which means gone from "my" lake. Which means I admittedly have anxiety about leaving behind Papa Goose who is not "mine" of course but tell that to my possessive and obsessive heart!

Though so excited to slip away a bit, I will miss him terribly. I will worry about him terribly. As I fed him this morning, I told him "I would be right back" - the same thing I always told my children when they were young and what I always tell my fur children now - even if only going to the grocery store. Papa Goose looked at me and let me pet his head.  His wild in nature head.  Me being a sensitive freak, I teared up. And as I reminded him to stay away from cars and bad people, he shook and spread his gorgeous wings to dry off droplets from his early morning swim. One of his feathers fell  floated to the ground at our feet. The thing is, Papa Goose doesn't leave very many feathers behind. So, I asked him if this treasure was for me. And with his good eye he told me yes. This I know.

Love has no language barriers.

I will take his most beautiful feather with me. And yes Papa, I will be right back.

And I love you. ❤️

Kim, the first picture is amazing. It could be in any picture book or on a wall calendar.

Sweet Papa Goose and his gift to you of a feather and a head-pat touched my heart. Have a wonderful time in the mountains. Safe travels to you and to Papa Goose.

That feather is precious beyond imagining.

I don't know why Miss Kim, but I'm really teared up tonight with your words and pictures. I think because HIS creatures mean so very much to me and to think they could be hurt or gone makes me very sad. Like sweet little Ruthie. That one picture of her swimming away makes my heart ache.

Blessings to you on your journey to the mountains. May God watch over you and be with your lake babies until you return. <3

Kim, you certainly have made these beautiful creatures enter our hearts! Praying that God will keep them all safe and content while Mama Kim is away. Much love.

Such a sweet post! Have a wonderful, relaxing time away...I will remember Papa Goose in my prayers while you are away. What a special treasure his gift of a feather is!

P.S. Thank you so much for the (very)happy mail I received today! Ruthie has a special spot in a special frame in m home! Thank you for the beautiful cards as well!

Oh, that feather was surely meant for you, Kim. What a sweet story about Papa Goose. Have a wonderful time in the mountains. The mountains are so peaceful, and I know you will feel Papa Goose in your heart while you're there.

love, ~Sheri
