Osprey rescue

UPDATE:
 Unfortunately all our efforts failed to save this magnificent bird, despite our best efforts.

I want to say a big THANK YOU to my friends that helped, especially OWL Orphaned Wildlife Rehabilitation Society and the  Selkirk Veterinary Hospital in Nelson.
The world is a better place because of caring people like this :)

Another Mother's Day

Me and my Mom a long time ago.

Another Mother’s Day!  I’m sitting in the sun on our patio, listening to the birds and reflecting. Today marks the 18th year that we’ve celebrated Mother’s Day... without my Mom. A lot has changed throughout this time, especially communication. Imagine no cell phones ?!    If my mom were here today, we could chat for hours and still not cover everything. I miss her laugh... and she laughed a lot.  She was a wonderful lady and thinking of her is bittersweet. I believe she’s in a better place and if I’m selfish in wishing she was still here, that’s ok.   I thank her for teaching me many things, which helped me to be a good mom too. My boys have turned out to be such wonderful young men, I hope she’s as proud of them as we are.

Anyhow, I just wanted to say "I hope you still have your mom or someone in your life that loves & motivates you as much as mine did. "

Thinking of my Mom and all the Moms that were, are & will be... 

Happy Mother’s Day!
