For The Birds

The weather is cooling the leaves are finally falling from the trees
 and the birds are in search of food and warmth.

We decided to give the birds in our neck of the woods a little gift...
We cut a small pumpkin, filled it with bird seed and tied on different yarn scraps.
 Which gives the bird a spot to rest for a moment,
 get a bite to eat and lends the bird a hand (wing)
 with some fluff and warmth for it's nest.



I've been too sick this week to see if any birds have arrived...
 I just hope at least one will take the little surprise we left for them.

We all need a helping hand sometime!
We too received a lovely dinner from a dear friend this week
 who knew we were all ill. It is a blessing to have such friends who care during a time. We feasted on a lovely pot of home made chicken noodle soup with kale, fresh homemade baked bread and a delightful green salad... It was perfect in a time of need...hence I was too weak, with fever & aches to even cook a meal for my family. I am truly grateful for the gift of food and friends, which may have been what made me feel immensely better the next day!
