Acorns

Today’s word is “acorn.” I cannot think of acorns without also thinking of squirrels. I love the little critters—their personalities, their tiny, nimble hands and feet, the way they focus so intently on whatever they’re doing. The ones who live on the property are an endless source of entertainment, scampering about, chasing each other and the Crows, and sometimes just chilling on a branch watching people go by. They have their lives and their dramas, and quite frankly, I think they’re underrated.
