Mrs. Day invited me to the "All Saints Day" Ladies' Tea Party in the sky

I think that as soon as Grandma heard that I was invited, she did what my dad used to do when she would come over. She ran up the stairs so that I wouldn't see her. I only saw the stairs she ran up. Every time the rainbow and the sunset sit opposite of eachother, it is sentimental to me. I had seen the stairs before, but I didn't realize that it was because my Gran was running up the stairs so that I wouldn't see her. I know that she was there because of the stitches on the sheer part of the sunset that the ladies were working on so diligently in their meeting. I really think that Gran is going to be my surprise, when I get to Heaven and she shows me the stairs every time I get close enough to see her in the sky parties. Those ladies are totally into the Chad puzzle and they painted their part of the puzzle, clearly. I really can't tell if they are telling me of the puzzle or following me in the puzzle and that is strange. Anyway, they painted into the skycloth sunset and it had a sheer covering that had Gran's sweet stitches. Be careful of the pins, I could hear her say as she ran up the stairs, it's only basted together. I loved seeing the steps but I couldn't believe that she would show me her stitches.

Sparrow's Spring nest

Mr. and Mrs. Sparrow were caught, by me yesterday, shopping together for a new home. They flitted and flirted, just outside my window. Talking and discussing and lovingly disagreeing, if not arguing the benefits and the pitfalls of living at our house.
Mrs. Sparrow was very impressed with the 2 "ready made" nests hung outside our window. Mr. Sparrow hadn't even thought of them as "ready-made" nests. He used them for the provision of building materials for the private home that he had in mind in a surprise and hidden place. He doesn't like the openness, at all, of our porch. It's much too populated. When Mr. Sparrow gets it into his mind to give his sweet chicky a peck, he wants the freedom to do it without a bunch of younguns peeking over the nest to see what comes next.
Mrs. Sparrow was impressed that the porch was fully protected from hailstones. We all know what happened to a great many of last years' nests in that surprise hailstorm we had. Male birds seem to have a very short memory for storms. They have only one thing in mind in the nest building season... 03/09
