"Mommy wook....it's your favorite, the Wed Bellied!!" (read Red Bellied). If you are going to live in this house, you're going to have to show some interest in birding. The MacLaren's are official losers....and are we ever proud. Watching my little girl view her world through upside down binoculars, makes me think she is clearly on her way!What a joy to be able to wake up every morning to the sound of a chorus of bird songs. Daily, we are blessed with visitations from Chickadees, Downy Woodpeckers, Yellow Bellied Sap Suckers and Red Breasted Nuthatches to name a few.
Maysie's gravitation to watching the "birdies" really goes to show the influence we have on our children. They embrace the goodness we treasure, and sadly that which we shouldn't. It challenges me to continue to strive to parent future focused. Remembering always that we are cultivating habits in our children that they will take with them into their adult lives. "Train a child in the way she should go, and when she is old she will not turn from it." Proverbs 22:6
