"I KNOW YOU CAN DO IT!"
"Do you see that big tree over there?"
"I see lots of trees Mom, which one, where?"
"Smack-dab in the middle as the crow flies."
His brother says, "See it Joe? don't look down,
close your eyes!"
"I'm not afraid, to fly, Jim, I know I can do it!"
"Now that's the way to think, boys,
just muster up your grit!"
"The next step is to walk over to the edge.....
Go slowly, and anchor your little feet on that wedge."
"Go on ahead.....remember, I'm right behind you."
"OK, mom, we're all wedged in what else do we do?"
"You concentrate honey, and keep that tree in your view...
Lean into the wind, jump.....and yell 'Chirpoooooooooo!"
"I don't feel like yelling that, Mom, do we have to?"
It will encourage you son, a good hearty chirpooooo
will encourage you!"
"I don't know, are you going to chirp up a bunch, Joe?"
"Might as well, then if we fall, Mom can
find us down below!"
"On the count of three start flapping your wings rapidly"
Here, let me show how to do that, like this quickly!
Trust me boys this is your Momma teaching you,
I wouldn't lie.
Once the wind hits your wings, I can guarantee it......
I know you can do it, you're going fly!"
"Here goes then, one, two three, flappppppppp!
Head for the tree Jim, pull up Joe, close the gap,
Boys you're soaring, just look at you, your take off
was spectacular!!!
I knew you could do it, you couldn't have made your
Momma any gladder!"

Help, Mom, I've fallen and I can't get up !! Sorry couldn't resist. This is absolutely delightful. I have sat and watched birds learn to fly. As with humans we aren't all quick studies, but the Mom's just keep encouraging and they finally do it. What would this world be without Mom's????? Fantastic as usual, Ms. Mom.
Love,
Rita

I afore commenters are true philosphers.
How right they are "adorable" a work.
And what a splendid lesson for a life time, to not to be hamstrung by fear and hurdles, but fly! fly! and be mindful of the potential that is waiting to be roused, potential often left asleep.
Magnificent didactic write, while it is boundlessly cute
Warm love
