Birdie Momma

There is a momma bird caring for two of her babies in a nest in the Bradford Pear tree outside of Ethan's bedroom window. For the last few days, I've fed Ethan in his chair as the birdies were being fed by their momma. It has been fun for me and I look forward to watching the momma nurture her tiny babies with grubs and bugs that she diligently searches for around the area. I don't how much longer they'll be doing this, but I'll miss them when they grow up and leave the coop...

I'll stop now before I start comparing this to our lives, which I think about as I watch these birds. If you look close in this picture, you can see the babies and their watchful momma:
