Aw, such a delightful diversion, thank you! Just the ticket to step outside one's environment for a quick bit of whimsy.😊 I adore chickadees; my daughter's first word was "dee-dee" while watching them on the bird feeder.💕
Coming to your post a little late here in July but loving it all the same. A wonderful little treasure to always enjoy just like the chickadees who cluster and dee dee dee to all who will listen.
And thank you for following me and joining my Substack, too. I hope to get it off the ground later this summer. I thought you might enjoy this special post by Bill Davison and perhaps to share with Sue, too.
That was a good essay. Thank you for sharing it. I did pass the link in to Sue. She agreed it is good. As I'm sure you noticed from our writings we are both enduring seekers for the things that make us hopeful. Thank you again!

I am so glad you liked it, Kate! Especially glad you're fond of chickadees too. They're such pert and curious little fellows! 🥰
What a sweet watercolor!
Thank you!!
Sweet!
Thank you, Diane and thank you, too, for all the Substack posts and replies you make that keep the tone so much more civil here. 🥰🤗
Thanks, J.L. Sullens. Civility is important; lack of it was why I exited Facebook! 😍💚💙💜
Oh Judy, this is so beautiful - both the words and the artwork! An absolute delight of a post. 😊
Thank you! I'm really glad you liked it and appreciate your response to it! ❤
😘
Loved this story!! Nice bird drawing too!! All of it was so pleasant!! Thank you!!! 💚💚💚
Thank you and big Hugs!!
I just realized you did that! 🥰
Big hugs to you too!!!!!! 💚💚💚💚
What a delightful story. Your humility prevented you from adding that you also gave honor to your friend with your lovely drawing.
I appreciate your kindness and your time to read my work, Tim.
I love this sweet exchange and I very much feel the same.. Here in Peru they call it Ayni- right reciprocity between all beings. Big hug
I love that! Thank you!

Anytime is a good time for short stories in my estimation! Welcome to my Substack, Sandy!

A true feel-good story. So beautiful. Thanks so much.
Thank you for reading it! 🤗
I hope you might also like 'Behind the Register' and 'Just a Life.'
Thank you for this uplifting story! It put a smile on my face.
🥰 Thank you and thank you for reading it!
You’re welcome! It was an enjoyable interlude in my day.
Was your mother Helen Falmer?
Do you read Heather Cox Richardson and Joyce Vance here on Substack?
We certainly understand that!
My wife and I are in Washington state since 2011 having moved from Oklahoma to escape the bigotry there.
Glad to hear that! Are you still in Missouri?
That's understandable.
I'm very sorry to learn of your losses. Hard to have lost so many is so short a span.
I met you when you were very young in MO. Btw our tribe spelled our last name Sullens.
