Who Is Sitting Pretty?

I think this card is adorable, but let me explain how it came to be.  We have a cemetery here that his two swans.  Their names are Jack and Jill.  I have been receiving emails with pictures of their cygnets (babies). So the other evening after my walk, I stopped to see them. Well, I heard a frog croaking and here comes the card.
