Weird Happenings

Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture. But we had quite the scare this morning. Okay, it was more of a startle than a scare. I had put Emily in her side of the stroller and Josh was about to help me push it out the door... He likes to push the stroller for the first little bit of our walks in the mornings. Anyhow, I opened the door and in flies a little birdie. I don't scream often, but I did jump and scream pretty good at this little surprise. Our little friend headed straight into the kids room, so I shut the door to keep it in there. How do you get rid of a bird in the house? That's a good question. Fortunately, this one was easy. I called the emergency number for the maintenance guys... the office wasn't open yet... and they came over and opened the doors and the bird flew right back out. Guess I could have done that. :) Oh well.

Josh wasn't as bothered by the bird as I was. In fact, he was more upset that the bird was gone than he was about it being there in the first place. He talked about it for an entire hour or so afterward. "Bird. My room." And then I'd say "Yep, the bird's gone." Then, "No. Bird. My room." Conversations with toddlers are VERY productive and exciting by the end of the hour. ;)
