The picture you conjure with your words is every bit as imaginative and creative as your handicrafts.<br /><br />I love your understanding of Mrs. Bird. So many women (even in these modern times) still live in quiet desperation. With all the little "nestlings" and the Hoover vacuums as gifts, they feel a piece of them has been taken--and worry it may never be reclaimed. <br /><br />But then, just as you described, in the winding down days we learn to accept the choices we've made and find beauty and fulfillment in what we have labored over (though it wasn't always just we thought it would be.) <br /><br />In the twilight of days, we come to realize that to everything there truly is a season...Cheryl Carey Basshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05325928052505193058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4739812143584749737.post-57103108607913539602010-02-18T06:52:30.285-06:002010-02-18T06:52:30.285-06:00So wonderfully written...you are a strong bird.So wonderfully written...you are a strong bird.sharronhttp://www.vintagegirlatheart.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4739812143584749737.post-52234465662363507442010-02-17T16:52:07.270-06:002010-02-17T16:52:07.270-06:00I'm so sorry to hear that life is giving you l...I'm so sorry to hear that life is giving you lemons right now- that must be so difficult to watch. But you are doing a wonderful job of at least attempting to maintain your happiness, and this post was a nice way to share a bit of that happiness with your readers. I really enjoyed the journey through Mrs. Bird's potential illnesses. And did I see a Stones reference there? If so, I like you a little more than I already did. And if not, well I still like you.
