Nurture, Nature


Four new peepers arrived today. We are raising chicks off season, but eggs at Easter are lovely. Children are pondering names. I'm voting for Mercy, Joy, Faith and Love. Sister will help, but these chicks belong to brother.


My mother hungered for art, for illumination.... She lit signal fires in the hills for her son to feel and follow. ~ My Reading Life by Pat Conroy 

Oh, Lord, Help us to light signal fires for our children. Help us be faithful to kindle a love of you and the habit of nurture within them.

(And yes, in case you noticed, he never takes that shirt off :-)
