today I saw a sparrow trying to soar as an eagle and I got this message/thought.

I don't care if you are soaring like an Eagle or just as a Sparrow... He still is Lord and is watching out for you. The main thing is to just Fly!! Let his love and strength carry you!..

Birds

I bought a pair of birds at Sol's in Wilmont Ohio. I thought they were wood and allowed Israel to play with them as we walked around the store, thinking if his hands were occupied then we would have less "no no's". he banged the birds together and was quite happy. It wasn't until he dropped one and it broke that I realized they were pottery. I bought them anyway as I can easily glue it. well I would have had to buy them for sure anyway after he broke it, but what I mean is, it doesn't matter to me that they broke, it was a clean break and I will glue it good as new.

I am amazed at how there are birds in stores everywhere. Saw some I wanted and didn't buy at Cracker Barrel, and at the Amish Door. I know I can make a bunch of my own and really need to dive in and do that.

Speaking of live birds, we have some wanting to build a nest on our front porch. Also, I saw an Eagle while driving down Main Street here in Henderson one day last week and then there was an article the following day in the Independent about how Eagles are making a home here in Chester County. Neat, maybe some will find a home in some of the taller trees in our backyard.
