Day Four: Only a Moment, in the Mud

No chance to sit tonight, with a cranky baby and too rainy to bring her out with me. During my walk to the coop to close the hens up for the night, I stole around the back to escape the light from the house and to pause for a moment. Heard the gentle drip-dripping of the rain in the forest, a plane's roar at a distance, and felt the wet, cool air on my face. The ground was uneven and crunchy underfoot this morning with the frost heaves, and tonight it is squishy mud!
