I wish I could handle death as well as my six year old Gavin.something came in and killed his pet duck last night. The duck's name was baby duck Gavin and Baby duck grew up together. The duck would come running to greet Gavin from the school bus. He truly was amazing!
Our female duck "Big duck" was also injured and I'm not sure she's going to make it. I've placed her on her nest of eggs. I'm sure "baby duck" fought to his death to save her. I'm so saddened. I tried twice to put them to bed last night but they ran from me because they like to be in the rain.
 Gavin took it well he says "get me two baby ducks" "yeah and a bunny".
I'm so sorry!!! I don't know why shit happens.

I'm a dog man myself. Mr Sparky wags and I have been together for 15 years.
He's a special dog. he don't know any tricks but he understands plain English
He goes to work with me most every day. I work as a roofer. While I'm on a roof sparky just lays under me somewhere watching me. We've been through so much. We've been in the back of police cars together. I've gone to jail. Sparky's gone to jail.I'm not gay but I love this dude!
I'm so hurt about this duck I can't stop thinking of back in January Sparky and I were riding in my truck and I asked him "Sparky" I said to him sitting over there in the passenger seat looking like he wished I'd get over and let him drive. "Sparky what am I gonna do without you bud"? In reference to his passing when the day comes. What will I do? It's going to crush me.. I can just about make myself have an anxiety attack before I clear my mind. Just days later my dad has a heart attack and is admitted to allegiance hospital where he died. what-color-are-you-does-it-matter.html.
Gavin took dads death really good to. He didn't ask for two new grandpas. Months have gone by and he understands now... Still I don't know.. Stupid duck why didn't you just go to bed. I Love you Dad. Take care of that dumb duck!
