A few weeks back we had some very windy weather! Nothing like this past Monday, but windy none the less. We were going for a walk and I felt a crunch underneath Genevieve's stroller. Sadly, I realized that it was a baby bird that had blown out of its nest. I then looked around and there were 3 others. We looked really hard to see if they were still alive, but they had fallen pretty far. Unfortunately none of them survived the fall. So Adina and Madison asked if we could bury them in the back yard.
We dug a hole and they suggested we pray. Madison went first..."Dear Jesus, I am sad for these birdies and sorry that they died! Amen." Adina prayed "Dear Jesus, please in heaven let these birds find their mom and dad and brothers and sisters. Please let the one that mommy ran over not have a crushed leg in heaven. And please, if the one is still breathing, please let it be able to peck its way out of the ground!! Amen."
