rbpittman Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Morgan has developed a new talent - it's called getting his way. The first thing in the morning, he's the loudest of the bunch screaming - Mom, Mom, Mom - waiting for breakfast to be served. This is not a new thing, something he's been doing for quite some time. Mom is his contact call. I just answer back. Then we went through the "hand" thing that now scratches his neck. Of course the hand has to be approached by Morgan, the hand cannot come to him. Also very cool, it's a major step toward acceptance. Today it was "mom, mom, mom, mom" but mom couldn't answer. You see I had surgery less than two weeks ago and yelling from the bed room to the bird room is a little more than I can handle at the moment. I had walked out to see them earlier this morning, Daddy has been feeding breakfast, and handling all "mom" responsibilities" but it wasn't the same. Apparently Morgan wasn't going to be content with the little bit of "mom" time. "Mom, mom, mom, mom" continued until Paul finally went out to see what he wanted. I could hear it going on, "Morgan, what's wrong?" "Mom, Mom, Mom" "Mommy's not feeling well, she's in bed" "Mom, Mom, Mom" ~~~Morgan doesn't step up for anyone other than mom~~~ "Morgan do you want to go see mom?" "Mom, Mom, Mom" "Step up" - silence. Footsteps through the house. Morgan and Paul at the door - swoosh - Morgan flies to Mom. "Mom, Mom, Mom" Mom will now be doing more convalescing in her office - Paul has moved a chair I can sit in out there! Robin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katana600 Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 I got all teary at the bravery of Paul and Morgan to work together and for Morgan to step up so he could get to mom. That is just awesome. So sorry to hear you have been held back for a bit, but happy to know you are going to be healing in the bird room. You have such a beautiful flock and family all working together. It takes a lot of work to keep them all happy. One thing about having surgery is that everyone might look around and see all the things you do that seem "effortless" to the others. Best of health to you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoom Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 That's so sweet that he was willing to trust Paul just so he could see you. He wanted to see you more than he wanted not to trust Paul. Get better soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
