Christmas on Monday

This photo was taken by a friend in Tennessee. In it is Itsy and Bitsy (painted conure sisters born from my pair named Treasure and Berry) who are scratching Zoey's head (Zoey is a White Bellied Caique).

On Monday Zoey will fly from Tennessee to San Diego to become part of my little feathered family. I am SO EXCITED!!!!!! I've dreamed of having a Caique but didn't plan to ever have one of my own. Thank you to Eve S. for the honor of adopting Zoey. Thank you for the toys and things that will be coming on Monday that will help Zoey feel at home with me.

Zoey comes from a Greek work that means "LIFE".
This little bird is symbolic to me that God is giving me life again. I may even have a Zoey party to celebrate. I needed something good to happen. My discouragement and sadness was getting the better of me...but, then God (via Eve)decided to restore my hope that there is still more good coming to my life.

So, Monday is Christmas for me.
Thanks be to God who still loves me. I am quite grateful for the hugs and kisses from heaven in the form of beautiful birds. Though I still don't know exactly why my life is full of birds, I know that they are a good thing and I adore them.

I am also grateful for my lovely friends who lift my spirit with their endless love and kindness. Everyone needs to be appreciated. My friends are shining jewels in my life.
