just a thought tonight...

watched a family of birds this afternoon outside our bedroom window put on quite a show. two babies, as big as their momma, sitting outside the nest, obviously not enjoying their first flying lesson, hopping about the tree branches with their mouths open, while their mom flittered from tree to tree, hoping to set a good example. i wondered, do we look like this? appear grown on the outside, feathers full-sized but with our mouths opened wide hoping for another handout?
