I wanted to let everyone know that our dear Gina passed away this week. It was out of the blue. Quite sudden. Our hearts have been sad. (In case you didn't know, it was one of our birds)
In my mind I think how silly it is to get attached and fall in love with little green parakeets. Yet, John and I both have found them to be such delightful little creatures that bring a lot of joy into our home. I had just prayed the night before we found her dead how thankful I was for them. They sat in their cage and nibbled on one another and when one went to the seed dish to eat, there came the other one. They sat all up next to each other like an old married couple. I smiled a lot just watching them. Billu seemed so happy having her around. She'd pick the feathers on his head and he'd turn his head to allow her to get the other side of his head. My heart smiled.
Today, we'll go to our 3rd pet store in hopes of finding another Gina. She will need to be a big fluffy gal that plays well with others. Nothing but the best for our Billu.
So far, we have had no luck.

I'm so sorry to hear about Gina! what a great name for a bird, though :) I love it :)
I miss you.
I've had some goodies for you for the last month. I just need to get my lazy butt to the post office and mail them to you! :)
