Sad Morning

So this morning hasn't been going very well. Kenny realized before he left for work, that he had left the water on all night, trying to fill up the pool for the duck and goose. Big Oops. But thankfully, because of that, he went outside to turn it off. That's when he found Donald, in the pool, all bloody and not in very good condition. In the corner of our yard was Mother Goose; dead, and all torn up into pieces. I didn't dare go look for fear of losing my breakfast, Donald was hard enough for me. So Kenny was a little late to work this morning taking care of business. He buried Mother Goose, and took Donald down to the lake. If we had a gun, we probably could have just put him out of his obvious misery. But all we had was a shovel...so the lake was where he went. I doubt he will survive there--he was in really bad shape--but at least we won't find him in the corner of our yard tomorrow morning. Plus I really didn't want the kids to see him like that. I'm just glad that Kenny found them first and took care of it all. What would I have done all day waiting for him to get home?
So we are officially pet-less. What a sad way to end our pet ownership, though. It was easier when we didn't know what exactly happened to them. Seeing them is no fun.

These pictures were taken last night, before these 3 took them down to the lake for what ended up being their last time.
