A birthday present

Today is Esther's birthday.  Yesterday we got her present - a chicken.  The idea for this came from our gift of Clarence (see earlier blog, Clarence and Me) that we received a few weeks ago. Clarence II was duly purchased and presented to Esther.  I'm not sure of her reaction, it was difficult to gauge!  After pooing in the car, Clarence II was dropped off with a friend of Esthers and we continued on with our day.  I never thought I would see the day when purchasing a chicken in a bag would be normal.
