~sneaks up behind the duckie and snags a couple of yellow tail feathers that had just been replaced by Ubar, as well as the sticky glue and slips away to dropping a feather here and there, but keeps a bunch sitting on my wagon porch, with a giant yellow pillow shaped like a duck.. A note is attached to the pillow that reads~
For a special woman who many call duckie, who's feathers are always found here and there... Inside this pillow are the ones I have collected over the years and when I gathered enough of those beautiful yellow duckie feathers, I made this pillow to give to you... You can either snuggle with the pillow when you sleep at night, or if you need some extra feathers, there's a buttoned edge that you can open and take some of those special yellow feathers to replace the plucked or lost feathers...
This pillow is also filled with the same love and caring pieces that make you who you are, for those times we have talked in PM in the room when I have needed someone to talk to, or for when you needed someone to talk with.. I leave you this pillow to know how much you mean to me and to show you how much I miss you out and about camp... I also included a few pieces of myself in that pillow as well, so when you need a reminder of how much you are loved in this home, you can hold onto that pillow and remember us all...
You are very much loved, duckie.. and missed very much as well...
