This is the kind of picture you take when you are a little bored while waiting for one of your chick’s senior appreciation Volleyball game to start.
Clearly this mama hen does not have the skills of her flock when it comes to taking selfies.
And this is a picture of what your little chick (who has suddenly become a young hen right before you very eyes) gets when they call her name as one of the departing seniors on the team.
Senior year – pride, anticipation for the future, and a time filled with such very, very bittersweet memories.
