I never made it on that roadtrip...my mom's eye swelled up and i stayed out of fear she would b=need to go to ER. In the last 4 days I watched 4 baby birds hatch, and I watched a rainstorm yesterday kill them...they are dead, and i am absolutely devastated by it.

ugh...that poor mama bird lost both sets of babies this spring. One set that froze to death in a freak cold snap before they got to hatch, and one set that either drowned or froze overnight due to being wet.

With both of them if i knew they would die, i would have taken them in the house and kept them warm so they would make it.

Nature can be so cruel...and it hurts, and i really hate that fact.

I can't typeand cry at the same time...
