Yup. You guessed it (from the clever title to this blog post, no doubt).
Someone small and feathery and very cute and his slavishly devoted mama just turned one year older.
Ahem…..younger.
Of course, in true flock tradition, today is a day for festivities. For feasting. For quality time with the whole flock, which includes YOU.
Today is a day for gratefuls, when we look back over this over-the-top crazy year to see what (who) got us through and learn – no surprise here – it was each other.
On this day, Pearl and his mommy and our whole flock send you all our love. We are grateful for your good company today and every day, this year and every year.
Wherever you are, whatever you are doing, know that you are loved, appreciated and thought of oh so often.
Know we save you a seat at the (virtual) birthday table as Pearl’s personal Small Chef serves up all the delicacies and we take lots of cute feathery videos and pics to share with you later.
Each birthday – and each day – is special. But what is most special of all is the love.

With lots of big birthday love (and feathers and shells and fur) from our little flock to yours!
