Something to Make you Smile . . .

Do you remember a couple of months ago when I posted that I thought the female cardinal that visited the feeder outside my office window was pregnant?

Mom.

Dad.

 Well guess what???? . . .

IT'S A GIRL!!!!   Tell me she's not the cutest thing you ever saw!!!  As far as I can tell, there is only one baby.

She sits in the bush outside my window and chirps incessantly while her parents look on and, my goodness, does she have lots to talk about!!  I can't help but laugh whenever I hear her because it reminds me of Jim and I when Megan "chirps" incessantly.  Lol!!! 

I hope that put a smile on your face.  : )


Wishing you a beautiful day ~ Wendy

Spreading Their Wings . . .

After weeks of anticipation and more than a couple failed attempts to catch a photo of the babies in our birdhouse, the moment finally arrived . . .

Pretty darn cute, huh?!!?  The nest is now empty and the constant daily visits of two chirping parents is gone.  The babies have spread their wings and flown away.

Speaking of spreading their wings . . .

It's a big day for us today.  Trevor (son #2) is graduating from high school tonight.  So hard to believe!!  We're having a little family dinner tonight before heading off to the ceremony.  When Connor (son #1) graduated three years ago, the weather was terrible so we had to be inside for graduation.  I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the weather holds out for tonight.  The hazy, hot and humid summer days in New York are upon us and today is no exception.  This means there's usually a chance of a late day thunderstorm.  It rained this morning so hopefully that's it for today.  If so, Trevor gets to graduate in the same spot that I graduated 29 (GULP!!!!) years ago.  The days are long and the years are short!!  : )


Many blessings for a beautiful Thursday ~ Wendy
