You Light Up My Life ~WELCOME HOME, MOM.
Our pup Bella loves being out back on her chain before I take her for her daily morning walk. I can’t deny her for wanting to sit out there this morning! The day has started off lush already, warm morning sunshine, a cool breeze, birds singing, it’s all peaceful around the house here.
She was begging at the door to go out a second time after receiving a treat for coming in prior. I glanced at the clock on my phone and it said 10:17 (AM): the date of my birth. October 17th. A special day in my deceased Mom’s eye for decorating the house for me with balloons and streamers, and making her own special Birthday Cake for me. A time for my Re-Birth and I made it through to being one-year older.
Anyhow, before I slid the glass door open to hook Bella up on her chain, I nearly swallowed my heart with happiness as I noticed a little light brown Bird flitting its way into one of the Birdhouses we have in the backyard where I had planted below it my Meadow Sage last year. I hooked Bella up and waited patiently for the bird to re-emerge from the little hole, and …..
Popping its head out, swinging it left-to-right to left again, it took off flying towards the woods — and stepping out onto the concrete step, I waited once again for it to come back to get a better look at what kind of bird it was.
Though ‘Intuitively’, I already knew — and I was right. The female Wren, possibly the North Carolina Wren, came back with some nesting materials in her beak. Tears sprung to my eyes as I thought of my Mom, it was amongst one of her favorite birds to watch in the Month of May when they (along with the male Singing Wren) migrated back to our woods, and would build their nests close to the house.
I have always connected in Spirit the Wren and my Mom after her death to Ovarian Cancer. And now, once again, the Wren is back, and so is my Mom. She is building her nest in the ‘West Wing’ of the two Birdhouses on the Pole.
My Mom has come back Home. And once again …
so have i.
