HE WOULDN’T LET GO OF THE CHICKEN—AND I DIDN’T HAVE THE HEART TO TELL HIM WHY SHE WAS MISSING YESTERDAY

That’s Nugget.

She’s not just a chicken. She’s his chicken.

Every morning, Finn runs outside barefoot to find her. He talks to her like she’s a friend, and she follows him everywhere. After his mom left, he became quiet and stopped eating. But Nugget, this little yellow bird that wandered into our yard, brought him back to life.

Then, Nugget disappeared.

We searched everywhere, but there was no sign of her. Finn cried himself to sleep clutching her photo.

The next morning, she returned, a little muddy with a scratch on her beak. Finn scooped her up, not letting her go. There was a red ribbon tied around her leg, and a tag that read: “Returned. She chose to come back.”

We decided to let Finn stay home from school that day. Nugget stayed by his side, and he even managed to smile. But later, an elderly woman arrived at our door, saying she was the one who found Nugget.

“I knew she belonged to someone,” she said. She explained how she found Nugget caught in her garden and helped her back home, hoping she’d find her way.

The woman gave Finn a small book about a bird finding her way home. Finn hugged her, tears in his eyes.

Nugget’s disappearance wasn’t random. It was a reminder of the kindness of strangers, and the power of connection. Finn went back to school the next day, smiling, with Nugget safely in the coop.

This story shows how small acts of kindness can make a big difference. Don’t underestimate the power of connection, even in the hardest times.
