Willows Update

 The Willows have arrived in Ontario!  It took them two long weeks to get there, but finally they are safe and sound with Deborah.  I'm so relieved!  

 Using a big gift card from the book store, I ordered this lovely tome!  It's wonderful!  Yes, I'm rather addicted to The Wind in the Willows, I know. 

 Here is another interesting birthday book.  I'll tell you all about it soon.

 A sweet friend sent me this little fairy teapot.  Isn't she cute?  I thought I wiped the dust off the shelf.  I guess not.

 Here's a little house box.  It's full of thank you notes.  Don't you think we should paint our houses light blue and red?

 Luis, one of my sweet sixth graders, sold "butter braids" to make money for his football team.  DELICIOUS!  I had to have some this morning for my first breakfast.  Second breakfast is with a friend at 9 am.  After that, I am scooting over to Kelli's to scoop up the girls.  Kelli and Bryan have the stomach flu.  The girls have already had it, so they shall spend this sunny day at Granny's.  

The leaves are changing, so I'll get out with my camera this weekend.  October is so pretty, isn't she?  It's time for a nature table.  Do you have a spot or surface in your house where you can place the findings from your walks?  I think this is another good reason to dust!
I feel sure that angels are attending you, people are feeling blessed by your kind and humble heart, and that your every day doings are building toward eternity.  I have a picture of Gumbo Lily's sheep in my desk drawer at school.  When I open it  to find a pen or pencil, I smile at them.  I am a fuzzy sheep.  I belong to the Good Shepherd.  Baaaaaaaa.
