An unexpected gift in my backyard: A temporary pet.

For the past few days, my backyard has become the temporary home of a very sweet and adorable creature: a baby pigeon. Yes, a baby with gray feathers and red legs has settled right next to the drain under the protective shade of my ferns.

It is not a traditional pet, but a fleeting guest that has lit up our family's daily life. At first, we were concerned about feeding and caring for it, but nature takes care of everything with disarming beauty. Every morning and evening this week, its parents, with a dedication that moves even the most reluctant, have come to visit and accompany it. Seeing that family connection, so pure and constant, is a reminder of how essential love and care are in the family, including the animal kingdom.

This week, watching him grow, take small flights, and wait patiently for his parents to come visit fills us with indescribable tenderness. We are honored that they have chosen our yard as their temporary home. This stage of its growth has become a lesson in resilience and hope that we Venezuelans so desperately need.

I know that, at some point, just like our children, life will call him or her. Then he or she will spread their wings and fly away to follow their path; they will take flight, but until that day comes, we will care for them and watch over them as our beloved and cherished pet.

His presence is an anchor in the present, a pause in the chaos, and a whisper from nature that always says there is magic in simplicity. Every morning, we go straight to the yard to see how our temporary pet woke up.

Un regalo inesperado en mi patio: Una mascota temporal.

Desde hace unos días, mi patio se ha convertido en el hogar temporal de una criatura muy dulce y adorable: un pichón de paloma. Sí, un bebé que, con sus plumitas grises y sus patitas rojita se ha instalado justo al lado del desagüe debajo de la sombra protectora de mis helechos.

No es una mascota tradicional, sino una invitada fugaz que ha encendido una luz especial en el día a día de nuestra familia. Al principio nos preocupamos por su alimentación, por su cuidado; pero la naturaleza se encarga de todo con una belleza que desarma. Durante esta semana cada mañana y tarde, sus padres, con una dedicación que conmueve hasta al más reacio lo vienen a visitar, a acompañarlo. Ver esa conexión familiar, tan pura y constante, es un recordatorio de lo esencial que son el amor y el cuidado en la familia, incluyendo el reino animal.

En esta semana verlo crecer, tomar pequeños vuelos y esperar pacientemente que sus padres vengan a visitarlo nos llena de una ternura indescriptible. Nos sentimos honrados que hayan escogido nuestro patio como hogar temporal. Esta etapa de su crecimiento se a convertido en una lección de resiliencia y esperanza que tanto nos hace falta a los venezolanos.

Sé que, en algún momento, al igual que nuestros hijos, la vida lo llamará., Entonces él o ella extenderá sus alas y volará para seguir su camino; alzara su vuela pero hasta que ese día llegue, lo vamos a cuidar y lo vamos a observar como nuestra querida y apreciada mascota.

Su presencia es un ancla en el presente, una pausa en el caos y un susurro de la naturaleza que siempre dice hay una magia en lo simple. Cada despertar nos vamos directo al patio a ver como amaneció nuestra mascota temporal.

Las imagnes son propias.
