How long does it take a heart to mend?

Dear family and friends,

Little bird is gone...hard to believe. It's such a blessing to have an experience that despite the sadness, you wouldn't change it.

The children are, well, children who just had their baby bird die.

God has filled my heart with perspective, although he is going to be greatly missed by all.

God is faithful!

Love in Christ,
Dinah for The Troops

P.S.- The answer to the question is 5 hours. 5 hours later my girls came scurrying in with squeals of delight with another baby bird in hand. My heart is going to take a little longer. Isn't God good, they certainly saw it as His grace and provision. Thank you Jesus...
