Don't get me wrong, I like birds...especially Alfred Hitchcock's version. That was one of the scariest movies I have ever seen, back in the 70's. My birds are just as scary. I have a small alcove above the front door. Every year the robins attempt to build a nest. They were Jack's nemesis...he took it personal. He took the nest down everyday, only to see it rebuilt by morning. Day after day, Jack had a mission. Now it's my mission...they're back.
I have no problem with the birds building a nest...I was a was a card carrying member of The Ranger Rick Club growing up. Why can't they just use a tree? These birds are mean, very territorial. They swoop down at you if you attempt to go out the front door. The boys took down the nest for me today, it's already back. Jack, I'm feeling your pain buddy.
US Open fever continues in my backyard. Ben actually made 2 hole in ones on the course, chipping from at least 20ft. He was ecstatic, what a fluke:)
Tomorrow is Father's Day. I spoke with Jack's mom tonight and told her Ben and I were going to navigate the day on our own...who knows what's in store, except for taking down a bird's nest.
Jack, our boy is simply amazing, I pray you can watch over and see the little man he is becoming. Just like you, he makes sure every door is locked at night. We miss you and will celebrate you tomorrow.
Jack sounds like a great father and husband... a lesson that I'm sure is not lost on your son... Have faith in your son's intuition and Jack's lessons as a father... It will not be lost on Ben I'm sure...
