The Monk

Gracie is writing a research paper on the topic of her choice, and she, of course, chose chicks (since we have so many around here). She learned that to make a chick a pet, you need to feed it and talk to it and hold it. Eventually it will associate his name with comfort and food and run to you. She just came in from seeing the chicks and said, "I tried what I learned but it didn't work". Ummm...she tried for three minutes. It didn't run to her when she called his name. Geez. I wonder if she will keep trying or if she can even tell the chicks apart. She could be calling different chicks the same name...there are 21 of them out there...
