FYI, Joshua got down in front of Puffy and she thought that his eyelashes were something tasty and pecked him hard! Missed his eyeball by literally a hair's breadth. Scraped down, and gauged a piece of skin from under his eye.

Remind thekids...don't get your face near the chickens! They can't see very well and when they see the eyelashes flicking, they just think it's an insect and peck without helping it.

I've been alternatingly horrified and praising God that his eye wasn't hit.
