Hooray for Mustard! I have always loved ducks and wished I had one but it hasn't worked out, living in the sprawling metropolis of Lexington, KY. Well, it does sprawl and we are around 300,000 or so.
Back to Mustard-
We are extremely blessed when an animal responds to us in a positive way. What if our Creator had made all animals mean and unlovely, but He didn't, did He? Being Who He is, He gave us precious encounters with animals which will remain all through our lives as wonderful memories. Although it always breaks my heart when I lose one of my animal friends, I am grateful for their being in my life.
I wish Mustard a long and happy duck life, with lots of duck talk and the like. You are blessed to have him.
Take care and may you be much blessed.
Love to the world,
Jim
