OMG yesterday we went to a bird store here in Florida and they had a few greys, some green cheeks, cockatiels, lovies, a lesser sulphur crested cockatoo and !! an umbrella cockatoo, he is only a baby and still on 2 feeds a day. My christian sister here, Lisa, fell in love and so did I. We couldn't stop thinking about him. He loves cuddles, what a cuddle bug, and kisses and just adores to hug and chew and kiss, just totally fell in love.
Lisa really wanted an umbrella, so today we went back to the store with her husband and the kids to take another look. Her husband was collecting toys, perches, gear and food for the baby, the lady was checking that I knew about hand feeding so we could take him home today, that I would definately be here for the next 4 weeks to feed him and finish weaning him.
Then suddenly Lisa wanted to think on it for another day

.. sob ! I was so looking forward to teaching Will (their 10 year old boy) how to keep him tame, and care for him, to train him etc. And to helping them settle him in here.

I mean .. If my hubby was that eager there is no way I would hesistate.
But on the other hand, if she wants to consider it alot more first then thats the way it should be. Sigh!
We will see what happens tomorrow. If they go back for him I will definately post pics
Fingers Crossed.
