About Me

I'm a mother of a very active 2 year old! I can't believe he's going to be 3 in January! I love to read, knit, and learn new things. My newest project is incubating ducks! So, I found out that turning eggs is a heck of a lot more time consuming than you'd think. I also found out that my son has a very big interest in the eggs. So, with learning that (the hard way!) I have gotten a larger incubator that he can't get the top off of. The first eggs weren't viable because he took the top off for so long, so we have a new batch on the way- with an automated egg turner!
