It's a "honeybird a honeybird, I said!"

Awww... Grace couldn't be any cuter if she tried! I was trying to get Eva to take a nap when Grace comes running up stairs, saying, "it's a honeybird!" I was like, "what?" She says, "come on mom! it's a honeybird" Still not certain I follow her downstairs and out to the garage where sure enough there was a honeybird (aka: hummingbird) caught in the garage. Grace was so excited and nervous for the bird it was too cute, she was eating an apple and said, "I think the honeybird wants to eat my apple" she wanted to set it on the garage floor so he would come down for it. I said, "let's just hold on to your apple - I'm sure if you ask him and he wants to eat it he will come down".

Grace danced around yelling for the honeybird for a good twenty minutes or more... and at random intervals she would get so excited she'd accidentally call her honeybird a hollybird- this reference of course comes from the SMURFS.

After more than an hour the bird finally made it out of the garage safely!
