Blue Birds!

Isn't this card lovely? It is also from Grandma Jenny's collection.

I love blue birds. There has been a resurgence in the population of blue birds in our area...they were going extinct until some folks in our area took notice and worked on building them back.

When we were small, my siblings and I were on our way out of the canyon. We saw a interesting long pouch of moss lying in the middle of the road. I picked it up and three small blue birds flew out of it. It was a blue bird nest and by picking it up, I had probably saved the lives of the tiny birds within. It is a delightful moment I will never forget.

Lovely little card, sorry I haven't been around for a while. I don't know where my days seem to go. They go way too quickly, plus it seems to take me longer to get things done. Hope you had a great week-end.

I remember that nest! It had fallen from the tree on Rhonda's side of the canyon ... I think.

The strangest thing keeps happening! I'm trying to send you an email and it just refuses to send! Beth@niquette.net is the address that I'm using. Do you have a different mail perhaps!?

I've seen some bluebirds in my front yard, but can't seem to get them to nest in my backyard bluebird box. I think it might not be open enough for them. My daughter has a lot of them, but I can't get her to put up a box. This is such a cute little card!
