You brother deserves an award for going beyond what is expected. Most people would watch in horror but your brother took action. I don't him but from this entry I can safely say he is one of kind.<BR/><BR/>Now for my cute duck story. My parents own a resort on the Lake of the Ozarks. My father found a duck nest and was concerned that an animal would raid it's nest. He watched the nest, he checked on it every chance he got and when the ducks were hatched he gathered them one by one and put them in "cage" he constructed. I don't know why but mama duck was all for this. One day a friend brought his son by to see the baby ducks. His friend's wife had just given birth to a little girl. When dad asked him how he liked his sister, the child replied, "I'd rather have a duck."<BR/><BR/>Great Story - Give your brother a hug.Pepper McKeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07235285852212643008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28840534.post-36972042344272061102008-07-16T09:22:00.000-06:002008-07-16T09:22:00.000-06:00Yikes, it wasnt my brother but ty anyway.
