Leaving for school yesterday morning I saw a bird in the street. It didn’t fly away as they always do when cars approach so I went around it and parked the car. Come on kiddos, let’s see what is happening here. It was a baby bird, beautiful with a little bitty chirp. Obviously it had flown from its nest and didn’t know what to do then. I used a towel and put it up safely on the grass, Sierra located the nest and we prayed for the best. “Good job Mom” Sierra said when we got in the car. I said “We are all God’s creatures guys and it’s our job to watch out for each other.” Lincoln was still wide-eyed over the experience and said “God is going to give you like a million dollars and a … a motorhome.” I don’t know yet if I should be worried about Lincoln’s constant translation of the world into dollars but I will continue to work on him. Ha.

That was so nice to save that baby bird. We have done the same thing ourselves. You’re setting a wonderful example for your kids.
