Dear Friends
Our family is having a very difficult week.   This morning when we got up we found our beautiful dove, Cinnamon dead in the bottom of her cage. Cinnamon had a beautiful song to share as she "cooed" for all of us.  We know she was aging, she no longer cooed for us and she didn't sit on her perch, instead she sat on the floor of her cage.

Cinnamon was adopted from a bird rescue on September 18, 2005.  We have no idea how old she was at that time, but if you are a math major you'll be able to figure she lived with us over 11 years.  Which seems like a long life for a bird.

Mom always decorated the top of her cage with Christmas lights or red for valentine, green for March and so on depending on the season.  It was so precious the first time mom did this and then lite the lights.  Cinnamon looked up and around and almost fell off her perch looking at the lights.  Mom cracked up and will always have that sweet memory of Cinnamon and her Christmas Lights.  We do think Cinnamon  enjoyed the lights cause when mom would change them she'd look up to check them out.

We will miss her beautiful song, at least we do have a recording of it.  Sorry I can't upload a recording to this page.  Cinnamon, you were a sweet bird, even if Holli and Addi scared you a few time pawing at  you through the openings in the cage.  Mom was freaked out the time she forgot to close your cage's door  and looked around to see Addi in the cage. Luckily mom jumped in to rescue you from the crazy little cat.

Cinnamon, you and Jaybo can run around Heaven and play together now, just remember to meet all of us as we cross that Rainbow Bridge!


RIP Cinnamon

Love
Leonard
