Man oh man do I love ducks. They are such cute little creatures, and they have a natural grace to them. There are so many different kinds with different looks. I use to love going to the New Philadelphia pond in the summer time with my grandma so that we could see and feed the ducks. I know, I know, you aren't supposed to feed the ducks bread, but we didn't know that back then. Oh, when I was in eighth grade, we took a trip to Washington D.C. We visited Mount Vernon, and in the last gift shop there was a rack of hand puppets. The one that really caught my eye was this little duckling one, and so I bought it. It was one of my four purchases on that trip (the others being a pair of sunglasses and two Cokes). Last Christmas, my parents even got me some duck socks, a duck puzzle, and some duck clips. Oh, and for my birthday last year, my little sis got me this awesome Mallard stuffed animal that I always keep on my bed, and this Melissa and Doug plastic duck that I keep on my desk. My little sis is the best. But yeah, I just really like ducks, they are my favorite animal,
