Progress













This picture shows a Painted Conure baby getting her first wing trim. I always wait until the babies are fully flighted (can fly easily) before giving their wings a trim. I feel it is important for birds to know that they are birds and be aware of their ability to fly. The new owners may choose to let the wings grow back and let their birds have full flight. Proper wing trims are like a hair cut and cause no pain or damage to the bird.

Today I am grateful that I slept soundly last night (or, earlier this morning). I am also grateful for the answered prayers for my friend's dad who is currently recovering from a middle of the night appendix surgery.

I am making slow but sure progress on cleaning and organizing my bedroom. It sort of got away from me a while back and I want to reclaim this room as my sanctuary...free of clutter or projects. I need a place that is dedicated only to rest. Now I feel that much closer to this goal, after much paper shredding and recycling and such.

Daffy bird is asking me to pick him up. He does that by saying,"step up." Now I will go have some quality time with this yellow friend. He also likes to say,"I'm yellow."

Grateful for answered prayer.
Grateful for progress in my bedroom.
Grateful for pleasant weather.
Grateful for the love of God and friends.
