“Who'll be chief mourner?
I, said the dove,
I'll mourn for my love,
I'll be chief mourner.”

TIME: 7:47 PM yesterday
PLACE: Dad’s front porch
SUBJECT: Mourning dove baby
I had every intention of taking photos at MonkeyBoy’s last ball game, but I didn’t. Depending how you look at it, I am either a bad mother for not taking any photos or a good mother because I was too busy watching the game to do so. I’m going with the good mother reason. ~*~*~ This is the same nest that was in my June 18th post. Sadly, it looks like only one out of the two eggs hatched.
