Yesterday as I was standing in the kitchen, I look out the
window and see, no joke, 15-20 pregnant Robins scattered around a tree in our
backyard. I’m in NW IN and the weather
has been crazy. First we have 60 degree weather and this week we get snow and
back down below freezing. As the birds
were pecking around I started to feel sorry for them. Was there supposed to be
food and now there wasn't? Did they
migrate back to soon? When my hubby entered the kitchen he asked what I was
staring at and I said, “All those birds outside. Do you think they are hungry?”
Without me asking, he went out to the garage, grabbed a bag
of birdseed, slipped on his shoes and headed outside. Gazing out the window, I
smile as he scattered food around.
He came back in the house shivering, chuckling and says, “I
think they were having a women’s convention out there. No probably a baby
shower.”
We both found ourselves standing in the kitchen laugh
hysterically over the thought of birds having a baby shower. I don’t know if it strikes you as funny, but
it did us.
Most of my writings are about gifts for people, but
yesterday my hubby gave a gift to our flying friends and I had to share.
Have a blessed evening!
