Saemma,
I'm so so happy your precious Emma came home to you. The special bond you've developed with her is the reason she was found. She
was trying to find her way back to you. What a special girl!

I think she was looking up at their faces trying to see you!!!! :heart:

omg what a happy ending! :hug8:
...just read the second half of the story...so unbelievable sweet..and I think your right rockoko - she must have been dying for a little TLC in her time of fear, and after perching on a shoulder and getting cozy she'd realize something still wasnt right, take a look at the face, not see you and remember where she was.....

Ohhhh, I love the idea of Emma going to watch one of the boys' games! And imagine if their luck turned around and they get on a winning streak! That sounds like a perfect story for the evening news.:heart:

Yes.. I thought about that tonight. I think very good friendships were created today.:hug8:
That is a great story. There ARE good people around. I was thinking the same thing, that Emma should go for a visit to their games (in her carrier of course!!) and visit them again:heart:

I have been away all day and just now got back, so I was unable to follow the emma thread today. I am so happy to have seen this new thread about her return. I was actually stunned at first when I saw it!!!

Saemma: I am so happy for you and little Emma!!! I knew at some point you two just had to be reunited, it just HAD to happen. Congrats on getting your little girl back, you both deserve to be back together. :hug8:

Dear Lord, thank you for listening to all our prayers and keeping Emma safe. Thank you for giving Saemma the strength and fortitude she needed to get through this awful time. Thank you for giving Emma the courage to fly to strangers for help, and thank you for putting the wonderful soccer team, the father, the park worker and the rescue shelter in the right place at the right time. Amen

AMEN!

I just got home after leaving at 9AM and what a wonderful ending to my day. Saemma, I am so happy for you! I went in and woke my husband up to tell him Emma is home! I love it, the boys soccer team, World Cup, South Africa, African Grey! I don't believe in coincidence and I see God all over this!

Saemma....There's not much more to say that hasn't been said.

I just talked to my friend who is a Pastor (I told you about him in a PM) I had asked him to say a prayer for you & Emma yesterday.....and today she is home safe. I think she had help....in a "Divine" way.

I believe that everything happens for a reason, and people come in & out of our lives for a reason.......I think that in some way, all this was meant to happen....You know those boys will have a good story to tell for along time, and I bet they will all take an interest in Parrots. A good lesson was learned by all. I also think it would be fantastic to bring Emma to some of their games....she's a superstar to those boys.

Emma...you are a miracle, and we all love you & your Mom & Sachi.

You are so right. I dont believe in coincidence's but I sure believe it was all the love and prayers and good vibes that got Emma back to her Mom and for reasons we do not know, it was meant to happen. We have yet to see the trickle effect of the good things to come from this. :hug8:

I'm so glad she's home! I get so freaked out about lost parrots.

We lost Sunny about 3 years ago. I had (stupidly) taken her outside frequently under a hooded sweat shirt, I took her outdoors while we were having a family get together. A motorcycle went by and scared her. We were lucky enough to have kept her in sight for 90% of the time. She ended up 3 stories high (and unable to fly down), not bad for a mostly clipped bird! She ended up in several trees, over a dozen, going a bit higher each stop.

It was lucky we had so many guest over, they're the reason we kept her in sight. When night fell I slept in a lawnchair. About 3-4am the owner of the place (he works bar security) came home to find me there. He freaked out (apparently there was some bad history), but once we explained it all, he let us on his roof.

I actually ran into him last night, it was my sister bachelorette party, when I was very drunk. I've run into him a few times in Walmart over the years. When I saw him, I could hardly believe it. I happily introduced him to the group of girls as my "Parrot Guy" who had "Saved Sunny bird!" He told me his still tells of our tale... and no one believes him! Then he was off (he was in a wedding that day).

I'm so glad you got Emma back, I get so upset about lost birds with Sunny's history, that I can't even post in the threads until they're found.
