It echoes my desires too, especially today as my 11 year old granddaughter came home to tell me of some cruel boys who stomped on the head of a mother bird after torturing it, whose nest had fallen from a tree with her young. They killed one of the baby birds and were torturing the other, until my granddaughter told them to stop and then one of the boys kicked her. She wasn't worried about the fact that she was kicked, but was concerned for the baby bird that had a broken wing. When they left, she and her friend hid it in the bushes hoping one of the boys wouldn't do what he said and get his bee bee gun and after school come back and shoot it in the head. She wanted to bring it home and nurse it back to health she was so distraught. After about an hour of talking about it she finally calmed down, even though she said she couldn't get the image out of her head. <br />Love, CharleneCharlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01059682223719672751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8629436772073396833.post-81617117011569820202014-09-24T11:21:42.407-07:002014-09-24T11:21:42.407-07:00This is a lovely gift to us readers, Nila!
