| Re: Returning To The Nest What a story! I can't imagine what that poor lady went through when she learned her precious fid was stolen. I don't know what I would do if that happened to me! At least the lady who purchased Franklin had a good and kind heart and returned Franklin to his family. What a happy ending! I'm so glad that you shared that with all of us.
