The Summer of Saving Peep

Three things in human life are important. The first is to be kind. The second is to be kind. And the third is to be kind.
-Henry James

One sunny afternoon in June, my sister Jenny and I were walking home from school when we noticed a loud chirping coming from an empty trashcan on the curb. We walked over to it and peered inside. A sad little sparrow was sitting at the bottom of the trashcan, chirping his heart out. His right wing stuck out from his body at a strange angle. Jenny said it was probably broken. She reached in and cupped the bird in her hands, cooing to him so he wouldn't be scared. The sparrow chirped all the way to our house, his little, fuzzy head poking through Jenny's fingers.

My mom took one look at the little bird and said, "No way! I'm not having another animal in the house." But once she got a closer look at those big, sad eyes and heard that pathetic chirping, her heart melted. We were counting on that.

Mom sent me into the bathroom for tape and an eyedropper and gently set the sparrow on the kitchen table to get a better look at him. She said his right wing was definitely broken, so she designed a splint out of a Popsicle stick and carefully taped it to his wing. Our dog, Buttons, kept trying to get a look at the bird, but we shooed her away.
