Marie, I love the way you refer to your "clan of baby and toddler bunnies" . I can picture them romping around in your yard. In spite of all your work, they seemed to have known where a good MaMa Marie lived. There is Marie standing on a back porch, completely overcoming all the frustration of lost work as you smile at "your little clan" munching away on the very tasty breakfast, lunch and dinner that you have provided. Animals know where love abides.
Jude, I know we all echo the same sentiment in our prayers, that T.O. be kept safe while doing the roof. While you are glad that the chicks are actually not yours, I am also glad that "my lake" is actually not mine. Your comment "Imagine having to 'boot out' your children at 3 months of age and watch them from a distance as they struggle to catch their food!!!!!!!!" was good food for thought. Somehow, it seems that this is somewhat what life is like. If we have children, no matter how old they become there are those struggles of "booting them out" in a very loving way and "watching them from a loving distance as they struggle." I don't know about you, but the individuals I hold dearest as friends, are those who have had and do have the courage to do the same to me when in the depth of our friendship, their heart knows that this is what I need most at some particular time.
Blessings on all as we begin a new week of life and prayers for T.O.'s safety as he "pays" his rent.
