Innate Instinct

Innate Instinct

                                            
Morning dove sits upon her small brood
Warming and feeding her two small fledglings as they grow and mature 

She knows precisely when to turn her back and push her young out into the world

Oh, please Morning dove, share a bit of your innate instinct with me

It is hard to push our children but oh so necessary. I like your comparison with nature.

Thank you sooo much Richard. My youngest is 18 and I feel utterly dumbfounded with this process!
