Charlie and the death of a Bird he found

Yesterday Charlie wanted to spend the day with his grandmother and grandfather so he could play her Play Station 3. Plus he needed his Bike fixed. As well as the flowers watered and this is Charlies job. So I dropped him off and went to run some errands.

Once David and I went back to pick Charlie up. He said I have something to show you mom. He had found a baby bird outside on the sidewalk. So Charlie and his grandmother found a metal cage and fixed him a bed. Charlie named him Steve.




Once we left we went down to Walmart to get Steve something to drink water out of. But once we got back home Steve had passed away. So Charlie and David buried Steve. But Charlie was devastated. I felt so sad for him that I just did not know what to say.

So I wonder if this cause Charlie to stop helping animals he finds. As he is always bringing frogs inside so they do not get hurt. I hope it doesn't as he is so loving. Plus he gets so excited just helping them. it is so cute to see as he gets so excited showing me what he found.

But once I explained to him that God wanted Steve for something Charlie was OK and said he is with my sister and my Granny. They will take care of him. So I do not have to worry about him. Right momma? I was almost crying when I said yes, they will.

So just a few minutes ago Charlies grandmother called to check on Steve and she was as upset as Charlie was. As she was afraid this would happen and it would upset Charlie. So as we talked I let her know we could get him another Bird and she was like yes, we can.

So I bet you before I know it Charlie will be coming home with a Bird. Do I want one? No, but if it is something they do together I will not say anything. As he is creating memories with her. That he was not able to create with mine as she is gone.



I wonder if he does get a Bird what color he will chose and what will he name it? Because as a toddler he had a yellow Parakeet his grandmother brought him one day. That a lady at her work had and couldn't keep. Now mind you with this Bird I did not even know she was bringing it. So I was a little upset.

But if Charlie ends up with one know I will be better prepared and we have more room for it and can take much better care of it. Plus Charlie is now old enough to take care of it himself. I hope. As I do not want to take care of a Bird.

Have you had a Bird? Or would you want one? If so what kind and what color would you like to hav
