I've always had a bird feeder, for years now. They bring alot of joy to me, nature so up close and personal. Now that we don't have any pets, we've loved having our bird feeders up again. We have this one tree out back and we have a little of everything for them. A little bird bath, three feeders and a suet feeder. There's usually ten to twenty birds in the tree at all times. Lots of beautiful finches, lots of yard birds, lots of black birds (who are quite noisy) red wing black birds and yellow headed black birds. We finally identified one that we couldn't figure out and its a Evening Grosbeak. Some come and we never see them again, just passing through. But, it's our little obsession right now, gives me something to do every morning. But, dang those birds are eating us out of house and home!
I was smiling to myself this morning thinking about something Cozy said while I was visiting them. We were all eating dinner at the table one night when I can't even remember why but I kidding shushed my daughter. Cozy sitting next to me was chuckling under her breath saying "Grandma shushed mommy". She thought that was pretty funny!
Elise learned to ride a bike last week! Hurray for Elise! And, she did it all by herself! She got to go out for ice cream to celebrate and her little sister Lilly wanted to go so badly that she told her mom " I learned to ride a bike by myself and didn't tell anyone...now can I go?
Last week Luna and her family made a quick trip to San Fransisco. Luna has never been out of Oregon or Washington so she was pretty excited. She got a kinda thoughtful look on her face and her mom asked her what was wrong and she said "But, we don't know the language".
That sounds like the UK, where you're more likely to hear Indian or Arabic in the streets, than English. Maybe Luna was thinking of Spanish!
