I have a bird house in my back yard. It's been there for a couple of years but this Spring a cute bird family decided to move in, build a nest, and lay their babies in there.
So right now the eggs are doing what eggs do in there. I think they are probably cozy. It's an amazing little house, if I do say so myself.
The best part about it all is watching the comings and goings of the mom and dad. I'm typically up by 6:30 every morning so I get to really see them in action. Most of the time they are perched on the fence right by the house just making sure everything is going well. The mom or dad will slip in the house every now and again and then come back out again.
Well, today I heard some serious chirping going on outside so I went to the window and looked out. There was a grey looking bird I'd never seen sitting on the fence. He looked like he was up to no good. I could see it in his little bird eyes. Then out of no where the momma bird came swooping in and started attacking the grey bird. I mean she was seriously dive bombing that bird. Full on protection mode was in effect.
It was awesome.
And it made me think. My mom would do that for me too.
She'd definitely dive bomb someone trying to hurt me. In fact, she probably HAS done that before.
That's what makes my mom the best.
Mom's are special. I got lucky enough to have one of the best mom's on the planet.
So Happy Mother's Day to all you mothers out there. Thanks for protecting and loving your little ones.
