You've reached Ms. Lalonde. Unfortunately, I'm in no position to take your call right now. Please, do leave me a message and I shall get back to you as soon as I can. Thank you for your time.
[Mom is soooo not awake enough at six in the morning. It's about two hours later that she's feeling coherent enough to check her 'gear. She's...surprised to see this.]
I love you, too, sweetheart, and I always will. What brought this up all of a sudden?
I was talking with Dave earlier and... I just felt like maybe you needed to know. Now that we're here... I want to make sure I say that enough times. So that you don't ever doubt that I really do love you. Because I know I wasn't the most model daughter...
I'm not a model mother, either. You're my daughter no matter what. We might bump heads more than a few times, but it doesn't change how I feel about you, Rosie. And I plan to make the most of it while I'm here.
It looks like the Ducklett line is a play off of the Ugly Duckling story. Swanna is about as close to an adult duck as I can manage. I don't feel particularly inclined to dress as a Pelipper, honestly.

I wasn't sure if I'd told you that recently, but know that I do.
I love you so much.

And I don't think I would want the model mother.
That means I wouldn't have you.
May 28, 2013; 8am
Maybe I should keep you, John, and Dave all to myself. ;)

I just want my little ducklings.
May 28, 2013; 8am
...or do ducklings peep?
May 28, 2013; 8am
I think they quack.
I'd double-check, but the closest we can get to a duckling is a recently hatched Ducklett.
May 28, 2013; 8am
...I wonder if Dave would know...
May 28, 2013; 8am
He likes birds doesn't he?
May 28, 2013; 8am
At least from my knowledge he does.
Hold on let me text him real quick.
May 28, 2013; 8am
I'm curious about his answer!
May 28, 2013; 8:30 am now i guess
So I guess...
"Peep!"
May 28, 2013; 8:30 am lol
Quack quack!
May 28, 2013; 8:30
I think I will have to get Ducklett costumes for Dave and I next Halloween.
May 28, 2013; 8:30
I'll find a Swanna costume to match!
May 28, 2013; 8:30
...wait.
Isn't Swanna a...well. A swan?
May 28, 2013; 8:30
